I don't suppose the oviraptorid could have died before it laid any subsequent eggs during the same gestation period, or had already deposited a pair some distance away, could it?

It would indeed be interesting to study the context of where this animal died. Were there nests nearby? How far was she from her nest site? Did she hunt between laying aggs or did she guard her clutch while a mate rought her food? These are some really interesting questions.
