The interviews were evaluated by content analysis of Bardin and for thematic categories interpretation, the psychoanalytic literature related to pregnancy and bond formations were used. The results point that the pregnant relation with the fetus starts in an ambivalent form, this because the pregnant may lost their baby´s guard; the drug occupies a privileged place in the mother’s psyche, making it difficult for her intended the baby a place in hers emotional universe; without the each other’s support the pregnants cannot become aware of the vulnerable situation that they are exposed to.
