Drawing on examples from in-depth interviews with 49 women, in this article we aim to open up a discursive space for women and health professionals to begin to explore the phenomenon of the interembodied experience of breastfeeding. Although acknowledging that social dimensions partially constitute the lived body, we further the view that the lived body's understanding is embedded in contexts far more complex than those that can be represented by language. We argue that women's narratives of their breastfeeding experience contained instances of the body "understanding" its emotional task at a prelogical, preverbal level. We identified three central, iterative dimensions of the phenomenon—calling, permission, and fulfillment—that occurred prereflexively in the protected space provided by the mother, a space that was easily disrupted by unsupportive postnatal practices. We offer this eidetic understanding and conceptual framework and suggest that it provides new (less damaging) subject positions and ways of behaving.
本文通过对 49 名女性的深入访谈，旨在为女性和健康专业人士开辟一个话语空间，开始探索母乳喂养的身心体验现象。虽然承认社会层面部分构成了有生命的身体，但我们进一步认为，对有生命的身体的理解是嵌入在比语言所能表达的更为复杂的语境中的。我们认为，女性对其母乳喂养经历的叙述包含了身体在逻辑和语言之前的层面“理解”其情感任务的例子。我们确定了这一现象的三个核心的、迭代的维度——召唤、许可和实现——这些维度在母亲提供的受保护的空间中预先反射地发生，而这个空间很容易被产后不支持的做法所破坏。我们提供了这种直观的理解和概念框架，并认为它提供了新的（破坏性较小的）主体位置和行为方式。
