[The psycho-affective behavior of pregnant women].
The puerperal condition represents a quite new, physiological trial that every woman approaches, from a psycho-affective point of view, with her own cultural, cognitive and behavioural experiences. The strict individuality of these experiences makes the new affective maternal-foetal balances extremely unstable. It is suggested to establish the more common psycho-affective reactions of the pregnant woman by analysing the answers to a questionary proposed to 696 puerperae at the 2nd Obstetrics and Gynaecology Clinic, University of Turin, in the period january-september 1982. The main datum consists in the need of serenity during pregnancy and labour, that could be gained by means of better physician-patient relation.
