Maternal representations include the expectations, fantasies, desires, fears and perceptions of a mother about her pregnancy, her motherhood and her future baby. This study is an introduction to maternal representations during pathological pregnancies of women with sickle cell disease. For this, a qualitative research was conducted with five women to analyze their representations, following a psychoanalytic perspective. The observation of maternal representations is an important tool in the prevention of disorders in mother-infant relationships. Finally, we observed that maternal representations can be affected by the mother's disease.
