Introduction
The Art of Maternal Womb Painting is a technique applied to the abdomen of the pregnant woman in which the imaginary baby and other elements related to the pregnancy are represented objectively. This research aimed to understand the meaning of the experience of the Art of Maternal Womb Painting for pregnant women.
Materials and Methods
Exploratory study, before and after, qualitative, developed in Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil. The group studied included 10 pregnant women, with gestational age of 24 weeks or more. The collected data involved: Art of Maternal Womb Painting, photography, field diary and interviews, analyzed based on the thematic content analysis, by Laurence Bardin.
Results
Two categories emerged: 1) The Art of Maternal Womb Painting promotes experiences of the subjective core of attachment or love; 2) Positive maternal behaviors generated by the Art of Maternal Womb Painting.
Discussion
The interpretation of the data, based on the theory of Condon, made it possible to elaborate a hierarchical model of the subjective experience of the attachment or love of the pregnant woman with the baby, mediated by the Art of Maternal Womb Painting. This artistic technique, associated with a humanist approach, is a good care option to be implemented in maternal health care.
Conclusions
The meaning recognized by pregnant women who experienced of the Art of Maternal Womb Painting indicates that the technique promoted the subjective core experience of attachment or love with the baby, elucidating its potential in promoting antenatal attachment.
