Abstract
Motherhood is still insufficiently explored regarding its psychological aspects. More than 20% of women suffer from emotional disorders in the firsts months after birth and their mental state affects the wellbeing of the child. Psychic maternity can bring an innovative perspective to the diagnosis and treatment of various conditions of mother and child in the first year of life. Functional gastrointestinal disorders, the most common diagnosis in Pediatric Gastroenterology, should be correlated with mother’s emotional condition. Maternology is a therapeutic approach of the psychological dimension of maternity and addresses, identifies and treats the mother-child dyad from an innovative multidisciplinary perspective. Based on clinical observations and the data from the theory, the purpose of this paper is to analyze the role of emotional relationship mother-infant in a series of cases with functional gastrointestinal disorders in infants. The paper presents the maternal and psychosomatic perspective on the mother-infant relationship and illustrates through case studies the specific evaluation and intervention of maternology. For a period of several years, we analyzed a group of couples mother-child, infants presenting FGID and did not respond favorably to the hygiene, diet and medical treatments. The evaluation was interdisciplinary, physician-psychologist: observation and analysis of feeding time. The instruments used for evaluation were: Questionnaire for FGID, based on Roma IV criteria, Beck Depression Inventory, Video
Analyze and Echobal Scale for mother-child interaction (maternology specific instruments). The mother-child relationship was investigated using the Video clinic analyze and Echobal Scale. The results revealed that a high percentage of mothers with FGID diagnosed infants also had emotional disorders according to the nosography of maternal disorders in Maternology and provide an argument for the use of dyadic mother-child therapy for improving infant’s digestive function.
