Mordas, E. S. Development of Reproductive Function and Woman’s Emotional Experience During
Pregnancy
Abstract:
The article describes the ideas of a famous psychoanalyst H. Deutsch about reproductive development
of a woman and reveals woman’s emotional experience in the process of pregnancy based on D.
Kestenberg, T. Benedek and M. Bonaparte and other authors. Pregnancy can be shown as a particular stage in female development accompanied with regressive and progressive tendencies and achievement
of a certain social status, new objective relations and another level of gender identity. Pregnancy can
be also viewed s the proof of femininity and her body’s functioning. Woman’s experience of pregnancy
can provide new opportunities for studying feminine identity and a new access to unconscious conflicts,
desires and fantasies.
Keywords:
psychology, pregnancy, femininity, conflict, libido, narcissism, identification, labor, regress, desires.
