So I 26m have been with my 24f girlfriend for 2 years now. We found out she's pregnant and we're absolutely thrilled. Now onto what I need advice for. So my gf is a quite modest person when it comes to bodily functions. I don't know if it's due to upbringing, but she's the type that would die inside if it's even acknowledged that she poops and farts. I've been doing my research so I can help her out while she's pregnant and I've also been doing my research on parenting. From what I've read, a lot of the times help is needed when going to the bathroom after labor. Of course I'll help my gf gladly but I just don't know how to keep her from being embarrassed. And whenever I've read that women might need "help" with the bathroom after labor, what does that usually entail? I know this sounds like something that would be an issue but my gf is VERY private about that stuff. All advice is appreciated!!
