No, this is not normal at all, and it will not go away. It sounds like Magic has a vaginal prolapse, and she has to see a vet for this immediately. It needs to be replaced into it's correct anatomical position, and given that it's been out of her vaginal for a month, it absolutely has to be corrected now. Please take Magic into an ER vet or find a vet on call to see her now.
