Doe bleeding from vulva

My oldest doe had this a few months ago and I'm 100% positive she was aborting.

She had the bright red blood for a day or so, then passed this pale pink string and that was it. Went into heat a couple weeks later.

Do you think she could have aborted this late after her due date? And I would have missed it- maybe there's a dead baby far out in the pasture?? Wouldn't she have bagged up or something at least?
She does seem thinner today- like emptier, which kind of scares me. She stopped pouring blood, just a strand of red goop this morning, and now her vulva is all swollen.
 
:hugs Just a hug because you 'sound' a little scared.

If she is bleeding, not just a little tinge of pink mucus but actual bright read blood and in decent amount like you said, she probably has aborted or is aborting. I would think she would have bagged up if she had already aborted but I do think it would be worth having a look around to see if you find anything in the field or in a corner somewhere. You might also consider having a vet check her out in case there is a retained fetus/placenta.
