CMV: If you are jealous of your baby for getting attention from your partner, seek professional help

I want to preface that this is a discussion thread and not an advice thread, and it is not aimed at any person in particular. I have seen many comments (from men and women) about the other partner giving more attention to the baby and less attention to them. I do not think this is a normal feeling - humans have an innate need for affection but in the context of a romantic relationship with children, the attention of the couple is primarily focused on the baby. I believe that the feeling of jealousy towards the baby is abnormal and unhealthy, especially if it leads to tension in the relationship. I do not think it is a matter of communication or making time for each other, because it is not a matter of time but a matter of attention. If you feel jealous of your baby because your partner is paying attention to the baby, I believe that it is essential for you to consult a mental health professional.
