You can try a lukewarm dechlorinated water soak with about 3 drops of honey in it to get her to poop again. Hopefully it was only one and she has passed it. Crossing fingers!

If there is a blockage she could still deficate whatever was infront of the blockage so there is still a chance she could become or be impacted.
Try Heather's suggestion and keep us posted. If it is bad enough a Vet may need to assist you.
4/5 crickets have been eaten from the looks of it. She's burrowed and sitting for the time being.
When they are severe the frog will become bloated and can get and internal bacterial infection that can become septic which will kill the frog. That is if the intestine doesn't rupture first. This can occur if the fdog cannot pass the blockage and continues to eat causing further harm with the ending result being one of the mentioned fatal scenarios.
Aside from feeling a hard lump in the abdominal area and bloating there are no real external signs. Sometimes the frog will vomit because it cannot ingest any more food due to the blockage not allowing anything to pass.
What exactly did your frog eat with the cricket???
Honestly, it's potentially possible it was an oddball piece of bark. It was too fast to see it, and she didn't snap at it and try to spit it out.. She just swallowed and stopped... There wasn't a huge amount of it (dirt substrate + hydroball mix), but the pieces that were randomly in there were large enough to cause problems. It only takes one, though..
