This praying mantis has a small white sack on the side of her and as far as I could find out, The eggs usually come from the back and this is on the side of her so could it be a parasite growing on her?

She had just mated Yesterday ( Saturday..Sept 11th) and as can be seen , There was no sack there then ..
Don't know what it was , But, There's nothing there today ...
I'm curious if it were a sperm packet. Or whatever it's called.
Not sure what it was, But, I'm glad it's gone, I was worrried about it being some kind of parasite. I'm waiting to see if she lays her eggs soon.
