Bearded Dragon Egg

Hi guys, I have had a female dragon without knowing for over a year (I feel terrible...) and last night she began laying a clutch of unfertilised eggs, she was digging a hell of a lot beforehand to the point of wearing her nails down, I put some damp sand in a bowl deep enough for her to dig in (the sand was a day old so very clean) but she took no notice and continued to lay 20 eggs in a shameless corner, it took her over 4 hours in total which it bought was odd. Then I gave her a bathe within half an hour of her finishing ask read online that this is beneficial.
I came back from college today to find that she had layed another one bringing the total to 21, after this I bathed her again and her stomach was very soft and empty with the skin quite loose, but here's my problem... Within the last hour or so her belly has become swollen and really firm like she is constantly tensing her muscles and it is now twitching, I've looked online and can find nothing to put to use so I'm really hoping someone can please help me out? This is her first ever time laying as I have had her from a baby. Please take the time, any suggestions are welcome please don't be shy... I have a number to ring to get some information but I can't ring until after college tomorrow so would appreciate some help as I am starting to panic.
The thing I am most concerned about is egg bound bearded dragons can apparently die from the condition? I don't no whether I'm over reacting but I'm thinking the worst here, she means the world to me
Thank you for your time.
