Resumo: | Introduction: Pregnancy is a complex and differentiated phase of life that involves many
physical and psychosocial transformations. It is a period of great expectations and emotional
influences, permeated by feelings and discoveries in the face of the new roles that will be
exercised within the home. Thus, the function of primary care in providing quality and
humanized prenatal and puerperal care with the objective of welcoming women from the
beginning of pregnancy is paramount, seeking, at the end of pregnancy, the birth of a healthy
child and maternal and neonatal well-being. In this context, the participation of men in the
reproductive process is explored, allowing their choice to be a father, and in the affective
relationship with their children that can be established with prenatal care. However, cultural
and professional factors tend to distance men from prenatal care. Objective: to identify the
meaning of prenatal care for men, in the light of the Discourse of the Collective Subject.
Methodology: this is a qualitative research of descriptive and exploratory character that had as
scenario two health units selected by lottery among the four existing in the municipality of Nova
Floresta/PB. The subjects of this study were the companions of the pregnant women attended
in the health units drawn and registered in the Prenatal program and who had at least three
consultations performed. In addition, the semi-structured interview was used and the data
analysis was performed through the Discourse of the Collective Subject (CSD) obtained by
verbal analysis issued in the first person (collective) singular. Results: All eight partners
interviewed are biological parents of the current conceptus, with variation in the age range
between 18 and 30 years. They have a family income of less than one minimum wage.
Regarding the number of consultations of the pregnant women, six were between three and six
prenatal consultations and five of them with gestational age in the second trimester and all
started their follow-ups in the 1st trimester of pregnancy. Of these, four pregnant women were
in the 1st pregnancy. No participant interviewed accompanied the pregnant woman in the
current prenatal consultations. Discussion: Nine DCS were elaborated from the key expressions
and central ideas emitted by the participants' statements. The results showed that the partners
present imprecision or doubt regarding the meaning and importance of prenatal care, identified
by the lack of knowledge about the program and its practice in the service. In turn, they
recognize the importance of the pregnant woman in carrying out the consultations, for reflecting
on the well-being of the pregnant woman and the health of the baby, besides being a moment of resolving concerns and doubts of the pregnant woman and the couple that can influence the
quality of life of the pregnant woman. They affirmed their desire to be present at the
consultations and five said they felt pregnant. Educational actions aimed at the father are not
present in their health units. They consider that fatherhood can positively impact the family and
the couple. They did not report difficulties in accessibility to the prenatal service. Final
Thoughts: It is concluded that the man wants and can participate in the consultations and
monitoring of prenatal care throughout the pregnancy process, however there are several
conditions that should be reviewed to improve public policies on men's health to insert him in
the care within the collective health. |
