Architects, Civil Contractors & Maternal Fetal Position

It probably cannot be imagined how architects and civil contractors can have anything to do with maternal position. Maternal fetal position also seems to be a new concept. Well, the unthinkable unknown has been achieved by our architects and civil contractors. They were responsible to complete our building's repair and renovation work in six months. It is already nine months since they moved us out of our seven wards to a transit area of one and two thirds wards. The number of patients in our wards has either remained the same or probably increased over this time, keeping pace with increase in the population of the country. There are often two women on one cot in the postnatal ward, along with their respective babies. The only way two women can lie down and sleep on one cot is by assuming fetal positions along the width of the cot. Their babies lie in supine position between them. If the babies were awake long enough and could understand positions, they would wonder why their mothers had adopted the position that they themselves have given up after birth.
