    They can't reabsorb after ovulation.

    Once they ovulate they can no longer reabsorb the follicles. The animal won't look as big as she did when she ovulated, ovulation only lasts a day, give or take a few hours.

    In a few weeks you will easily see the shape of eggs in her.

    One of my females is also due around June 1. She still looks bigger than normal but she isn't as big as when she ovulated. What I can notice that tells me things are going according to plan is her raised spine. Everything else is 'moving out of the way' for the eggs. Watch for the peak of her spine and compare it with a male or another female that hasn't ovy'd.
