There is still a pregnancy stage between mating and laying the eggs. It's called being gravid as opposed to being pregnant in non-mammals like snakes and spiders but I think we all know what the OP meant

Huh? What's NSFW about "pregnant black widow spider"?

Oh! The adult language in the video. Wow, I'm slow today.
