if she is spinning she might be in stress, you mentioned that she's pregnant does she look like that already?

If she does then she is short before giving birth
Hope that helps
Good luck

P.S.: Will check back later if you added anything

What do you mean spinning? Like trying to swim but can't? Was she like this before the water change? Did you treat the water with conditioner? It could be a swim bladder problem but could you please answer my questions. We all need more info before we try to tell you how to treat the fish.

Try looking to see if its side fin is missing, It could be trying to swim with both, But only has one, so its just going round in circles.

maybe your guppy is frightened or bothered by the other fish in the tank so try putting that guppy alone in a seperate tank and see what happens

Did you over feed her? Maybe she is having a small seizure?
Good Luck.

maybe when you changed the water you scarred her. call petco or a pet store and ask. did you take the fish out and then change the water? if you did it is probably scarred.

prehaps if you hit her with the changing water, it could of put her into shock. it is common.
was the water the same temp?
