SCHECHTER, Lívia Mariane de Sousa  y  PERELSON, Simone. Separate from the mother to become a mother: the creation of the conception space. Psicol. clin. [online]. 2017, vol.29, n.3, pp.403-427. ISSN 0103-5665.

The main goal of this work is to establish how the process of separation between mother and daughter can relate to the possibility that the daughter wants and conceives children. We begin our journey with a brief resume of Freud’s work, highlighting the discovery of the importance of pre-oedipal girl’s relationship with her mother, as well as the puzzle on the factor that would lead to the separation between the two. From an intersubjective perspective, we add to these considerations the role of maternal representations, with its effects on the processes of identification and narcissistic constitution between mother and daughter. Finally, we discuss how the pregnancy, while propitiating a revival of pre-oedipal relationship of the woman with her mother, is a prime opportunity to update the process of separation between mother and daughter. Then, we seek to relate this condition to the emergence of the desire to have children, distinct from the will to be a mother, in which the prohibition of incest has no effect. This prohibition ensures the existence of a psychic space that is required for the conception: the potential space of creation.
