Abstract
A descriptive-exploratory study which aimed to identify the fathers’ experiences during the pre-natal consultation process, learning about their socio-economic profile via semi-structured interviews, and analysed through Discourse of the Collective Subject. The sample was composed of ten fathers accompanying the mothers, and the results that emerged were separated into central ideas: the experiences of accompanying: motives for participating: what it is like to accompany: contributions: and what is easy and what is difficult about accompanying. Paternal sentiments are emphasized by becoming involved in pregnancy, making the fathers more attentive and concerned with the health of the mother-to-be and the baby. The research considers the Brazilian National Policy on Integral Health for Men, which aims to include men in matters concerning reproductive health.
