Pregnant embodiment: Subjectivity and alienation
Journal of Medicine and Philosophy 9 (1):45-62 (1984)
Abstract
The pregnant subject has a unique experience of her body. The dichotomy between self and other, self and world, breaks down. She can experience a positive narcissism and sense of process. Some conceptualizations and practices of contemporary medicine, however, can alienate the pregnant subject from this bodily experience.
