Q: Please can you help me with the following?

1. Yesterday after passing stool I showered and cleaned myself to the best of my ability. Later that day when I cleaned myself in the toilet I found my private parts were still a bit dirty. I am now concerned that due to the fact that I showered and dried myself i could have spread the najaasat all over my body and therefore wherever i sat during the day and possibly perspired could have become napaak. Please let me know if this is in fact the case and whether I have to go back and wash all the areas i sat on during the day, including my towel shoes etc

2. Sometimes after cleaning I notice a dead insect on the cloth that I have cleaned my house with, would this then make all the items I wiped with that cloth napaak and is it necessary for me to wash these items three times?

3. We were out at a restaurant with family and friends and when we got home I realised that my daughter had urinated in her pants. I then began to get concerned that she was sitting on the chairs in the restaurant and touching everything there including the food, utensils etc. Furthermore she also sat on our family and friends laps and touched their belongings. I am not sure how wet her clothes were at the time and whether the urine has made all these things napaak. Please can you advise me as to what to do in this situation.

Q: When I fell pregnant with my little one, the Moulana advised my husband and I to read as much Quraan as possible to the baby in the womb. Now that he is born, I am trying to continue. While he plays, I pray Quraan aloud to him and when he sleeps I play surah Yaseen, Ar Rahmaan , Yusuf or surah Maryam from my phone. Alhamdulillah, I know reading Quraan can bring overall benefits to the baby but I was wondering if anyone knows specific benefits? Or can someone advise me on how to do this better?
