With less than a day left until Elias Slafford – Darkwatch makes his way onto the grid, I’m really bummed my pregnancy is about to end.

When you’re pregnant in real life, your emotions have time to adjust. I mean, you generally get about 40 weeks in order to realize you’re pregnant and fall in love with the miracle you’re carrying. You adjust to the idea of your body changing and the idea that you are bringing a child into the world and that your life is about to change forever. But on Second Life, being pregnant for 40 weeks is somewhat unrealistic. Or is it perhaps more unrealistic to be pregnant for only 9 weeks?

In my post about My Second Life Pregnancy, I talked about how only in the last couple of weeks did I really come to terms with all of this and realized what an amazing event this really is. And that’s so easily compared to real life. Except now I find myself not ready to be done being pregnant and if 9 SL weeks are the equivalent to 9 RL months (which it basically is) then I should be soooo ready to pop this baby out!

Except I’m not.

Again, the RL/SL parallel is amusing. I realized this morning “OMG.. I don’t have a birth plan!” and then I stopped my brain in its tracks and realized… did I really just say that? But I did.. I so did. And I need one. I have no idea how I plan to have this baby. I even went to the SL forums to ask for ideas for one!

And then I realized all of the things I hadn’t bought that would be fun to have. And surprisingly, XStreet delivered! Meaning, someone else thought of the same stuff as being useful and made it! So maybe I’m not too crazy.

Not TOO crazy. Yup. Just a little crazy. So it’s totally acceptable.
