She becomes a demon again because she feels betrayed by mortality
I don't generally favor pregnancy storylines because they so often seem to see women as a different species, but this could have been a wonderful confrontation of what it means to be mortal. Not all of us humans experience pregnancy, but we're all betrayed by mortality sooner or later. Is anything worth the perpetual possibility of losing anyone and anything in your life?
FWIW, I *was* impressed with Darla's storyline, again because choosing whether to die as a person who is capable of love or live without it is a restatement of the human condition; it's a human decision, not a specifically female one.
