Looks preggers to me, should have fry pretty soon, too....I wouldn't stress her by moving her
 
Yep she’s got the dark gravid spot on her underside. In a community tank she may just hold them in - I have plenty of surface plants for the fry to hide, they move extremely fast straight after birth avoiding other platties that want to eat them. A few fry may survive in a community, I had two fry cheat angels chasing them, a wagtail and Micky mouse blue - wifey loves them.

Pregnant. She will continue to birth more babies repeatedly unless separated from the males.
 
Even after being separated from males she can still have fry every month for up to a year as females store sperm.
