Has my red zebra cichlid swallowed some of her eggs?

Yesterday her throat/ mouth was full of eggs. Today it doesnt look as swollen and full. Is there a chance that she has swallowed some or all of them or have they possibly hatched. I dont think they have hatched already because she has hold been holding them for a couple of days. I cant get a good look at her b/c she is alway hiding. When is the best time to move her to her own tank? If i move her now will stress cause her to spit prematurely or swallow them? plz help. i have waited sooooo long for this to happen & i am very excited!!!!
