How is she reacting? Eating, calm, nursing, normal temp?
She no doubt passed it when you weren't looking...during the night etc...
I do not recall a placenta not coming out of my bitches...some I saw and some I did not...a shot was given and then I watched them...temp etc..none had a problem with infection...so I am sure it passed without me seeing it...
Plus she has had an antibotic shot for good measure...normal temp is your best guide.

You can try massaging her belly like you are removing sauage from a casing...if you feel nothing, it is likely long gone...best wishes
