Stuck Molting or Pregnant? 🫪

Hi everyone! I've had this dune scorpion since September of last year (2025). I identified it as a male but I've posted photos for feedback. He seems to be stuck in the molt phase since March or earlier. I hadn't seen him for a few weeks in April. He's also not eating at all, but still remains "plump".

I started lightly misting him with the hopes that it'll help him. My other fear is that it's actually a female & she's carrying babies 🫪. What do y'all think? If it is stuck, how can I safely help it along?
