Liz,
Leave her be do not put the male in with her, she is way too small. Adding the male will just provoke her into laying more eggs. Reptiles sometimes do lay eggs without a male present; our day gecko who is still just a baby did it recently. However that does not mean she is ready. Being with a male and laying clutch after clutch at that size will take a lot of effort out of her body. Wait till she is larger and her body can handle it. Hopefully she will not lay another clutch.
