SCALCO, Mariléia Orn  y  DONELLI, Tagma Marina Schneider. Symptoms psychofunctional and the mother-twin babies at nine months of age. Temas psicol. [online]. 2014, vol.22, n.1, pp. 55-66. ISSN 1413-389X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.9788/TP2014.1-05.

The symptoms manifested by psychofunctional baby are reflected in the child's dysfunctional behavior and manifested in the areas related to sleep, feeding, digestion, respiration, skin and behavior. The literature points to the existence of a relationship between the presence of such symptoms in the baby and the dynamics of its relationship with the mother. From a psychoanalytic perspective, this research, exploratory and qualitative approach, we used the design of a single case study to investigate the mother-infant in situation of twins, whose babies have symptoms indicators psychofunctional nine months age. The study included a triad formed by the mother and her twin babies aged nine months. The instruments used were the Symptom Check List, a form of socio-demographic data, semi-structured interview with the mother and observing session of free interaction of mothers with babies. Results show that the twins can set up as one of the factors that can increase the chances of the onset of symptoms psychofunctional in early stage of development. Moreover, the conflictive marital coupled with lack of parental support, especially in situations of multiple births, can enhance the chances of emergence of maternal failure and consequent risk to develop symptoms in babies psychofunctional. Thus, increasing the understanding of the functioning of a triad can contribute as a preventive measure and provide subsidies for professionals from various fields of expertise who work with babies and their mothers as schools, hospitals, clinics and therapists of parent-infant relationship.
