QUEIROZ, Anabela Silva. Facing a strange affiliation: mothers' suffering and mourning. Estud. psicanal. [online]. 2019, n.52, pp. 29-35. ISSN 0100-3437.

This work reflects on the experience of clinical care for families with babies affected by congenital Zika virus syndrome. Based on the specificity of the mothers' psychoanalytic listening, I approach the singularity of the maternal function developed, the narcissistic wounds of difficult healing and the threat of an endless pregnancy. It discusses the situations of psychic suffering and risk for the child's development in the understanding of the first childhood as the priority time for psychic constitution. The reflection on the clinical conduct of some interventions, justified by the anguish felt by parents due to the loss of the expected child, the trauma and limitations imposed by the diagnosis, point to the answers and fansmatic productions. The desubjective appropriation of the child by science and the consequent dismissal of knowing from parents makes it difficult for them to make the expected spontaneous marks on the child.
