This is just the kind of story I have been trying to find. Your writing style is very enjoyable. Thank you for sharing!

Oh, I enjoyed this very much. I love your descriptions. And the ending is perfect. Nicely done!

This is terrific! Even Sherlock's no match for a midwife: "Be rude to them if you have to." "I was," Sherlock assured her.

But where's John? Oh, dear!

The first part of the chapter with AGRA was weird to me. I understand what you were trying to convey with her being out of her head, but it just didn't work for me. Glad John showed up in the end, but he better give Sherlock some positive feedback rather than just dubiously doubting his ability to look after Mary!

Oh, I love the end of this chapter! Sherlock reassuring Mary that he was rude was just so funny.

AGRA floated in the infinite mist. Soft blankets of silence surrounding her.
Far away she was aware of distress; clawing pain and confusion. But out here in the mist everything was still.
AGRA saw the brightness shift forever from light to dark and back again. - like this description!

"the sadness eternally filling her like a teardrop on the brink of falling forever." - another lovely line.

"John glanced over at Sherlock, looking moderately dubious." - *smiles*

A touching little story to explore the emotions bottled up in a such a life as one, Mary Watson (AGRA)... I like that you relate how she begins to find attachment once more in her new child and renewed in her husband.

"Mary knew they were both way out of their depth.' - aw! quite true though.

Guess there is a reason labour is called the "worst pain ever".

Nicely described suspense... waiting for baby, waiting for John... waiting

A nice touch of humour and angst... as you begin this piece... "Confident with a small dose of terror. A perfect combination" - *nods in agreement*

Apparently even Sherlock was no match for the midwives.
"Well try harder." Mary sounded exasperated. "Be rude to them if you have to".
"I was", Sherlock assured her. - LOL! even the greatest consulting detective is no match for a bloody busy midwife! lovely :-)

Hope John shows up soon. In spite of Sherlock, Mary still needs baby's father.
