New Veiled Chameleon...Gravid

Okay, so I've only had my (actually my boyfriend's) chameleons for about 2 weeks and I think my female is gravid. But I dunno how far along she is but shes grown quite a bit since we got her. I have the laying bin set up, shes wandered in it at least once that I've noticed (this morning), and she hasn't eaten for the last 2 days. She does have a boyfriend (not in the same cage, obviously) and she has laid eggs before (last owner said she had 15 fertile eggs). My question is this, is there any way I can tell how far along she is? I know that they are prego for about a month but how soon do they start showing? I know I proly sound like a dumbass but I truely have no idea. I wasn't planning on breeding her this soon, not til I learned wayyyyyy more about the whole process but now I don't really have the time to learn this at a slow pace like I wanted to. I have done quite a bit of research but I'm nervous as all hell and would really like some input from someone (or muliple someones) whos been thru this before. Any advice would be a help, relating to my questions or otherwise, I'm just super nervous.

Im still new to the world of chameleons, but i know after reading some articles and what not that you can sometimes see a bump in front her backs legs at the back of her abdomen. Im guessing it gets bigger as the eggs develop and grow in size.
