re other statements:
Urodacus never have a gestation period of 2 months, its always 12-18. If your scorpion is getting larger and she is adult female, then most likely will be gravid. Most wild caught adult females are gavid. Increase dampness of the environment and seal the container off so it cant lose water. Use a soil/peat mix at 50:50 and have it damp...not wet, just damp. Do not disturb the scorpion very much and keep her in dim light.
