Abstract
The pregnant body seems to be endowed with a peculiar form of immanent self-lucidity, which enables us to deeply feel and to intensely anticipate what a reflexive consciousness will only grasp later on and in a more rationalized way. Before embarking, however, on the description of the lived experience of pregnancy per se, which reveals a radical embodiment characterized by the strange othered intimacy of having another living being growing inside my own body, I would like first to account briefly for the different degrees of bodily lucidity at work in our everyday experience.
