A couple wanting to shine a light on what going to the bathroom after giving birth is like did so by sharing an intimate TikTok that has received over 7.7 million views as of Sunday.

Content creator Tiffany Remington and her husband, Caleb Remington, welcomed their second child, a little boy named Calvin Khai, in July. Tiffany shared the news across her social media pages.

On Instagram, she took her followers along her birth journey in a multi-part series, showing every step from their hospital arrival to the moment she gave birth to her baby boy.

The Remingtons did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

On TikTok, however, Tiffany took it one step further by showing how Caleb played a crucial role in helping her use the bathroom for the first time after giving birth.

"It is time to poop after birth and for me it is just as mortifying as birth," she says in the video posted on July 9.

The clip shows Caleb assisting Tiffany in the bathroom, wiping her, and giving her insight into what her anus looks like.

"It's just puffy and inflamed," he says. Caleb then helps Tiffany prepare a post-birth pad and pull up her underwear.

In the caption, Tiffany wrote that while she's "fully capable" of using the bathroom alone, Caleb asked if he could help her because he knows she hates the feeling of "being dirty."

"This is the reality of birth, not just the newborn snuggles," she added. "The first visit to the loo can be terrifying. You don't have the adrenaline of pushing out a baby so it can be painful."

She also told followers that after birth, it can often feel like you are experiencing the pain and fear alone, but you're not. Tiffany also noted that she took Colace, a stool softener, which helped her use the toilet post-birth.

"We also want to normalize asking for help," Tiffany wrote. "My husband and I pride on being there for one another and push each other to ask and accept help."

Moments like this one, she added, bond her and Caleb in the "most special way."

The comment section of the clip showed that people were divided on Tiffany and Caleb's choice to share the intimate moment on social media.

One of the top-liked comments was left by a user who wrote: "I feel like we can talk about it and just use our imagination on some things. Not everything needs to be shared with the world."

To that, Tiffany responded: "Some people are visual learners."

"We all getting too comfortable on here," another top-liked read.

However, many comments left under the clip were positive, showering praise on Tiffany and Caleb.

"This kind of support is what every woman wants in their husband," one user wrote. "You go dad!"

"I really love that you show this also. Because no one and I mean no one tells you these parts after having a baby. Hope you have a wonderful recovery," another top-liked comment read.

"Thanks for posting this so that my partner can see it's normal for him to be eager to help," one user wrote. "His dad convinces him it's not manly."

Tiffany responded to the comment by saying: "The most manly thing you can do is practice compassion!"
