Feeding too large of a meal can also lead to a prolapse, not just in ball pythons but in any snake. If yours recently had the big meal make sure she stays very humid and has plenty of fresh water so she stays hydrated, which helps reduce the risk.
Do you know how much yours weighs? I have some ten month old BP's that would snatch up a large mouse and look for seconds, and that's with offerinng a rat weanling every 7-10 days, where most people would still be feeding them every 5-7 days since they're under a year old. They're in good weight also, so it sounds like yours may have been underfed a bit, but trying to pack on the weight and catch up in a short time isn't good for them, slow and steady wins the race with these guys.
