I'm new to leos too, but I think you may be keeping the eggs too moist. You said they're "very swollen" and that some had been attacked by fungus. If the hatching substrate is too moist, the eggs will absorb a lot of water which stretches the shell tight. Being that tight sometimes makes thin spots in the shell which allows fungus easy access into the eggs. I HIGHLY recommend the book, "The Herpetoculture of Leopard Geckos". I just got a copy and it's by far the best reptile book I've ever read. It's a bit pricey, but if you check around you can get it cheaper than the 40 bucks that most places advertise it for.
