My exp. had been that once the afterbirth comes that's it. No more babies.
If you had to pull very hard to get the baby out then I would do whatever I had to in order to monitor her temp. There could be some damage to the uterus or other areas involved.
As for her feeling and looking still full, it may take some time to go down.
As long as she is eating and drinking and not running a temp and otherwise acting normal I would not worry.
I put my girls in a stall when they kid. That way I can do what ever I need to easily. I put eye hooks in the wall in case I need to tie them for a procedure they may not like. I want to do it quickly and with least amount of wrestling. Hope all goes well for you and the goats.
