Becoming a Mother

Publisher Odile Jacob
COLLECTION Psychologie
How to become a mother?

What goes on in the mind of a woman waiting for the birth of her child: an event that happens every day all over the world, but that for her is something extraordinary? How does she prepare for it psychically? How to explain blues or postnatal depression? What do we know today about the psychological causes of infertility? How can we understand pregnancy denials or infanticide? Monique Bydlowski, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst and great pioneer of the psychological dimension of motherhood, provides accurate and sophisticated answers to all these questions.
