I ask you something, perhaps it is a little "stupid" but who knows
you write each time : into x
shouldn't be better "after" x
from the second line
"into x" is for the first time then you must write "after" x
I have not much experience, I'm not sure of what you mean, but I'd write it so
Hope this help to resolve your problem
Cheers
