Resumo: According to the psychoanalytical, theoretical framework, the father-infant relationship established during pregnancy, through the construction of a mental image of the infant and through father-infant interaction, has important consequences for the father--infant relationship after the birth. The aim of this study was to investigate the expectations and feelings of the father-to-be regarding his baby. Thirty-five first-time fathers, aged 21 to 40, who lived with the baby’s mothers, participated in this study. The mothers were all primiparas. The fathers were interviewed individually at home. An analysis of qualitative content revealed that few fathers reported difficulties in imagining the baby. In general, they showed that they had already constructed a mental image of the baby, imagining its physical and psychological characteristics, as well as its sex. They also participated in the choice of thebaby’s name and expressed concerns as to the child’s health.

Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar as expectativas e os sentimentos de futuros pais em relação ao seu bebê. Participaram deste estudo 35 pais que esperavam seu primeiro filho, com idades entre 21 e 40 anos, e que viviam com a mãe do bebê. Os pais foram entrevistados individualmente em sua residência. A análise de conteúdo qualitativa das entrevistas revelou que poucos pais referiram dificuldades para imaginar o bebê. De forma geral, os pais já haviam construído uma imagem mental do bebê, incluindo suas características físicas e psicológicas, bem como o sexo. Além disso, haviam participado da escolha do nome e manifestaram preocupações quanto à saúde da criança.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2009-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7083Psychological Studies; Vol. 26 No. 3 (2009): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 26 Núm. 3 (2009): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 26 n. 3 (2009): 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/7083/4649Copyright (c) 2022 Cesar Augusto PICCININI, Daniela Centenaro LEVANDOWSKI, Aline Grill GOMES, Daniela LINDENMEYER, Rita Sobreira LOPEShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPICCININI, Cesar Augusto LEVANDOWSKI, Daniela Centenaro GOMES, Aline Grill LINDENMEYER, Daniela LOPES, Rita Sobreira 2024-04-30T17:14:36Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7083Revistahttps://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:2024-04-30T17:14:36Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
