Anyone else struggling to switch off ? All I've been doing is cleaning non stop for 3 weeks!

But does anyone else feel a 'pop' sensation sometimes near the belly button when they bend? It doesn't happen often but it's weird when it happens and I never had that with my first lol

Just curious as everyone in my family has such different opinions on if I’m bigger or smaller x
