Summary/Abstract: The pregnancy considered as a physiological psychosis reveals the dichotomy of the unity and the duality. Therefore the relationship between the psychoanalytic concept of object and subject is disturbed. The process is close to the mechanism of abjection defined in 1980 by Julia Kristeva. The obsession and the separation are two perspectives for analyze the embryo typology in some examples of contemporary feminine literature (Dominique Mainard, Eliette Abécassis, Chloé Delaume, Valentine Goby, Annie Ernaux, Lorette Nobécourt, Nancy Huston).
