Babies actively seek social interactions, favoring affective exchanges considered essential for development. Investigations about this provide a better understanding of the process of  the child emotional development. This study aimed to draw a current panorama about the mother-baby affective exchanges, examining characteristics of scientific publications on this theme, between 2008 and 2018. An integrative literature review was carried out, allowing a synthesis of knowledge about it. A search was made in the Web of Science, PsycNet, PUBMED, Scielo and LILACS databases. Seventeen articles were selected for analysis, after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, and categories were pre-established to analyze the studies. The results indicated a low number of publications on the subject in the  considered period (2018 being the year with the largest number), predominance of cross-sectional studies in large urban centers, with children from zero to 36 months old. The most addressed general theme was the dynamics and circumstances of the initial affective exchanges. It was possible to point out gaps regarding the need for studies focused on cultural diversity, including gender differences in babies and including microanalysis of affective behaviors and shifts in affective exchanges. It is also argued the need for new Brazilian studies exploring different socioeconomic contexts.

Palabras clave : affective exchanges; mother-baby interactions; initial affective interactions.
