This research aimed to evaluate the influence of the prematurity on maternal emotional in mothers of premature newborn admitted to a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The first study, exploratory and quantitative cross-sectional, about the incidence of clinical symptoms of depression and anxiety in mothers of premature newborn during hospitalization in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the association of these symptoms with the expectations and maternal feelings. Consisted of an evaluation by the BDI and BAI inventories and a questionnaire of closed questions, in a sample of 36 mothers. The second study, exploratory and qualitative about the expectations and the maternal feelings regarding the motherhood and in relation to the prematurity of their babies and its possible consequences. It was made from a semi-structured interview in three selected sample of the first study mothers. The results showed that 42 % of the participants had depression and 48 % anxiety, and that both the symptoms were present in 64 % of them, being associated to the mothers who were not primiparous and some expectations and maternal feelings. It was also found that, despite not planning pregnancy, the desire of the mothers by their baby was present, as well as the importance of the physical and scopic contact with their babies. It was observed that the bond between the team and the mother includes contradictions and that the family and social expectations regarding the baby resonates as a maternal failure. Therefore, the prematurity seems to influence the maternal emotional, can lead to emotional consequences such as depression, anxiety, impotence, inadequacy and guilt, beyond the frustration of many desires and fantasies. Thus, it is important that mothers have a psychological support so that the emotional consequences can be minimized and do not prejudice the mother-baby relationship.
