My mom was and is like you too. She was cleaning and cleaning, non-stop cleaning and climbing to reach top of drawers and cabinets. She was in her early pregnancy I think. Due to all that work, and not even tiring for her, she said, she had a miscarriage. Even so, she didn’t learn her lesson and was still climbing and cleaning when she was pregnant with me or my sister. She already had a baby bump, probably early 3rd trimester. Lucky both me (or my sister) made it into this world. 😂 Another time, it was the same too. She’s a clean freak lah always cleaning here and there and miscarried twins. ☹️ That was probably in between me and my sister cause we are 7 years apart. So if you must clean it your way, do it moderately. Don’t overdo it and rest as much as you can. 1st trimester is the most crucial part of your pregnancy journey. 2nd trimester is for you to get your baby stuffs done while your bump is still not in the way and you can still breathe quite normally. And 3rd trimester is for you to enjoy your baby’s kicks, elevate your legs and rest more while waiting for baby’s big entrance.
