I understand she makes a silk nest, lays anything from a few up to hundreds of eggs. She then covers them with more silk and then wraps the whole thing up in more silk and carries it up off the ground to protect it. I think they moult inside the sac at least once and them cut themselves out through holes. Their mother's back ends up covered with babies for about a week. I expect this varies with species, I am not an expert on spiders, I still scream at the biggies. Others will know more than I.
