Abstract(s)
A perda gestacional é um dos lutos mais complexos e com pouca validação social, uma vez que ainda é negligenciado o facto de ambos os pais sofrerem. Neste sentido, procurou-se compreender qual a perceção, do pai e da mãe, acerca do processo de luto, na perda gestacional, designadamente sobre o impacto na esfera pessoal e conjugal. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas, através de uma metodologia qualitativa, a seis participantes, portanto, três casais, que vivenciaram a perda de um filho por morte fetal. A posterior análise dos dados foi orientada segundo os princípios da Grounded Theory.
Como principais resultados, evidencia-se que as reações dos participantes vão de encontro ao que a literatura defende como sendo as principais reações adaptativas, a um processo de luto, desde o choque até à aceitação da perda. Ao nível do casal, salienta-se que a perda de um filho manifesta impacto no casal, nomeadamente, na comunicação entre os membros, podendo constituir-se como um fator de risco para o equilíbrio da relação conjugal. Nesta perspetiva, o conhecimento desta vivência, traz contributos para a compreensão de novas abordagens aos casais, que vivenciaram uma perda gestacional, tendo em
conta as especificidades dos pais e das mães que sofrem de maneira distinta.
Gestational loss is one of the most complex griefs and with little social validation, since it is still neglected that both parents suffer. In this sense, we sought to understand the perception of the father and mother about the process of mourning, about gestational loss, namely about the impact on the personal and marital sphere. Semi-structured interviews were carried out, using a qualitative methodology, to six participants, therefore, three couples, who experienced the loss of a child due to fetal death. The subsequent analysis of the data was oriented according to the principles of Grounded Theory. As main results, it is evident that the reactions of the participants are according to what the literature considers as the main adaptive reactions to a process of mourning, from shock to acceptance of loss. At the level of the couple, it is worth noting that the loss of a child has an impact on the couple, namely on communication among members, and may constitute a risk factor for the balance of the relationship. In this perspective, the knowledge of this experience, brings contributions to the understanding of new approaches to couples, who experienced a gestational loss, taking into account the specifics of parents and mothers who suffer in a different way.
