Tipos de conjugalidade e sexualidade na transição para a parentalidade de mulheres de classe média de Salvador, Bahia

This research studied the dimension of sexuality in the couple's transition to parenthood using Aboim ́s typology (2006) as the analytical theoretical basis. It was based on the qualitative method of content analysis. Interviews were conducted, three personally, three by mail, with six women from middle class, who have recently undergone this experience, with no significant differences between the two approaches. The five interviewees belonging to the profiles of Love Fellowship and Love Fellowship Toggle, where partners gave importance to sexuality, reported that the birth of their children has transformed the marital routine, bringing improvement to the relationship. In Fellowship Building, where sexuality is viewed with little importance, the arrival of the first child aggravated sexual troubles of the couple, bringing individualism in opposition to individuality. It is suggested that the described types of couples may come to be associated with different management as to sexuality in the transition to parenting
