My first lock experience

Some females will take a meal while gravid. I had a girl eat up until 2 weeks before she layed.
Moving is pretty normal with a gravid female. As they start getting closer to laying they will get restless. They’re surf around to reposition eggs or start acting like they’re trying to tie themselves in knots.

Has she been laying on her side or belly up recently? At the size she is in your last photo you should be able to feel the eggs in her belly when you let her head back into her enclosure.

I feel somthing when I try the method of letting her go back into the tub I can feel I think 3 lumps that are not her muscles moving it’s a little tricky she’s kind of shy. I try to hold her up to see if she has a belly but she gets uncomfortable and with her being a spider don’t want her flailing her head and twisting to much. But as for turned on her side or belly up. Not yet but her coil is less perfect but she’s back in that one spot again today
