[Social net during family expansion].
This is a research of qualitative nature developed with the objective of studying the support net of families during pregnancy. Data were collected through semi-structured interview, from 16 women in May 2003. The results showed that just one woman did not appeal to the support net during pregnancy and that different people are sought according to the type of problem experienced at the time: economical difficulties or of acceptance of the pregnancy, need of emotional support or counseling, help for the household chores, among others. It was concluded that the social net favors the good development of the gestation and that health professionals need to know if the woman has a support net she can count on during pregnancy
