Guys, She's DIGGING! =)

lol ok I'm a bit confussed...

As most of you know my BD pair bred around the second week in April.
I only saw them mate once, and they've been housed together in a 5 foot cage ever since. The female hasn't gained weight or anything since the mateing but today while I was cleaning cages she was digging in her hide box which is unusual cuz she never does in there. Well, I thought that was odd so about 2 hours ago I put her in a 45 gallon rubbermaid containor filled with moist playsand and vermiculite and I just checked on her and she's digging away like crazy!
This morning while I was holding her, I thought I could feel a few small oval shapped lumps on the underside of her lower belly.... could she be gravid?!?!

lol I'm sooooooooooo darn excited now!!

any thoughts?!

Thanks for your time, this is my first time breeding BDs and I've never had eggs...
