Resumo:   The present study investigated mothers’ perceptions regarding the reaction of the firstborn to the pregnancy with second child. Eight pregnant women, who had one pre-school child and were in the third trimester of pregnancy, participated in the study. A qualitative content analysis of the interviews revealed that the pregnancy and the proximity of childbirth unleashed anxiety and jealousy in the firstborn, accompanied by demonstrations of joy at the arrival of the sibling. All the children showed attitudes indicative of jealousy, including fear of losing mother’s attention and affection, as well as signs of aggressiveness towards the mother’s belly. The results suggest that the mother’s pregnancy is an outstanding event in the life of the firstborn, emphasizing the importance of parental support in this period

Participaram do estudo oito gestantes no último trimestre de gravidez do segundo filho e cujo primeiro filho estava em idade pré-escolar. A análise qualitativa do conteúdo das entrevistas revelou que o avanço da gestação e a proximidade do parto desencadearam ansiedade e ciúme nos primogênitos, concomitantemente a manifestações de alegria pela chegada do irmão. Todas as crianças apresentaram atitudes indicativas de ciúme, tais como medo de perder a atenção e o carinho da mãe, e sinais de agressividade dirigidos à barriga da gestante. Os resultados sugerem que a gestação do irmão constitui um evento marcante na vida dos primogênitos e ressaltam a importância do apoio parental nesse período.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2011-03-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8854Psychological Studies; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 28 Núm. 1 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 28 n. 1 (2011): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/8854/6262Copyright (c) 2023 Caroline Rubin Rossato PEREIRA, Cesar Augusto PICCININIhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPEREIRA, Caroline Rubin RossatoPICCININI, Cesar Augusto2024-04-26T13:13:04Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8854Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-26T13:13:04Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
