The current growth of psychoanalytic clinical practices with infants triggers the articulation between psychoanalysis and several other fields of study. Nonetheless such a intertwining does not disregard the importance of early detection of signs of suffering - which serve as obstacles to the psychic constitution - or the analysis of its direct influence on alterations and developmental delays. Once these signs are detected, psychoanalytic clinic underlines the need to intervene as soon as possible while ensuring parents' role in the treatment as well as approaching the infants as subjects in constitution. However, the early interventions defended by psychoanalysis differ greatly from the so-called early stimulation. Therefore we propose a discussion about the effects expected and provoked by both, while questioning the place of the subject of desire (of greater importance in psychoanalytic clinic) in therapies that, not only, present stimulation as the main focus, but also aim at psychomotor reestablishment and "adaptation" to the environment.
