RIBEIRO, Fernanda Schmitt  y  . Reflecting on maternal care outsourcing within a context comprising assisted reproduction and multiple. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.2, pp. 422-441. ISSN 1677-1168.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5752/P.1678-9563.2019v25n2p422-441.

The purpose of the present study was to understand the reasons why a mother decided to outsource the care of her babies. This work occurred with a mother and her three children through Bick infant observation method. The subject mother conceived her pregnancy through Assisted Reproduction Techniques. The observations occurred every two weeks during the first year of the babies’ life, at the subject’s home. The observer points out to have faced a context in which she saw herself beside the mother watching the caregivers, babysitters and nurses taking care of the babies. Based on that, it was proposed a reflection on the outsourcing of maternal care in the studied case, raising three hypotheses that are interconnected and are related to: assisted reproduction, triplet maternity and the feeling of vulnerability described by Winnicott, that many women experience when become mothers.

Palabras clave : Observation of babies; Maternity; Assisted reproduction; Outsourcing of care; Triplets.
