We seek here to make explicit the developments around the phenomenology of motherhood and gestation of the Argentine philosopher Lucía Piossek Prebisch, starting from her writing: "Isolation and communication..." (1966). Our aim is to trace several presentations on this subject made by the philosopher and subsequently published between 1960 and 1980 and up to 2015, highlighting the conceptual implications in her writings, the link with the phenomenological tradition and the further implications of her thought. In this sense, our hypothesis is that Piossek Prebisch's theses constitute a fundamental antecedent within the field of the phenomenology of motherhood, not only because of their early appearance, but, above all, because of the depth and originality of her thought.
