Beardie not laying eggs

[Cleolove]

I got my bearded dragon about two weeks ago. She has been perfectly healthy until she became pregant. She’s been eating less, hyper, and digging constantly. I made her a dig box, which has helped. Yesterday, she laid two eggs. She’s still pregnant and hasn’t laid anymore eggs. I’ve let her out to exercise and I’ve gotten her to eat. I plan on giving her a bath later. What can I do to help her? Is this normal?

I reached out to someone who has had experience w/ eggs and laying this is what she has recommended

Try to find a reptile vet than give her a shot of Oxytocin to induce the egg laying.

Here is a website for you to find a reptile vet in your area

If you are in a small town type in a bigger cities zip code closest to you

Is a vet the only option? I don’t want to bring her to a vet if there’s a way I can help her at home

here is the response I got
You can wait + see, put her in some warm water for 5-10 minutes tomorrow . Sometimes that gives them the urge to poo so it may help her to pop another egg out and get back on track to laying after she's put back in the laybox. Be sure you pat her dry + warm her up first though. If at any point she gets very lethargic, black beard + distressed you should have a vet ready [ she could be egg bound , a real problem ] but hopefully that won't happen

Thank you! I’ll definitely keep this in mind next time, because I found 23 more eggs when I got home from school. I’m not sure why she laid 2 a day before the rest, but I’m thankful that she’s ok
