From Pregnancy to Motherhood: Psychoanalytic aspects of the beginning of the mother-child relationship explores the mental states associated with pregnancy, birth and the early days of motherhood from a psychoanalytic perspective. Drawing on clinical research findings and the infant observation method originally developed by Esther Bick, the contributors examine a range of topics which include: how women''s view of motherhood is influenced by social, cultural and biotechnological factors; how women''s sense of identity changes throughout pregnancy and motherhood; how women''s relationships with her family, partner and future child are shaped; and how mental health professionals can better understand ways to work with issues of maternal and infant mental health.
Gina Ferrara Mori
presents the research of psychoanalysts and psychotherapists working in different settings with mothers-to-be exploring their emotions, wishes, dreams, phantasies, fears during the "time" in which they wait for the birth of their baby and experience the various phases of their bodies development. Their work discusses the specific and complex developmental process in female identity which the authors have termed the construction of the ''internal motherhood/inner maternity'' which becomes a ''psychic container'' establishing the pre-conditions for developing bonds, affection and their relationship with the baby once it has been born.
