Your tank is way too small so they probably either had them and ate them or the females are stressed enough that they reabsorbed the fry.

Female guppies can both hold their fry and re-absorb their fry if the conditions are not right to give birth. In a 1.77 gallon tank without a heater, I'd say they know darn well the tank is too small, too cold and already overpopulated. Be glad your fish are still alive.
you're able to desire to consistently have greater women then adult males. The adult males will stress the ladies out. The guppies probably have been pregnant while to procure them. yet they are defintaly now. the effortless form of days they are pregnant for is 28.
Guppies eat their young. To protect them you give them places to hide or net them up a aquarium all by their self.
If baby guppies lost this time, don't worry there will be more in a few days. Give young a place to hide or remove them to separate tank, Happy Fishing!
