    Sleep, Rest, Enjoy your baths and showers, Do the shopping earlier rather than later and that way your can set-up the nursery and not have to worry or panic it wont get done.
    Most importantly Relax and enjoy being preg, i know after i had my DD i missed having my big baby belly so much.
    Good luck

    enjoy putting on socks and shoes while you can..
    enjoy the quiet of the house while you can..
    relax, nap and enjoy warm baths and showers
    look into extra pillows or a body pillow if u havent already
    remember to keep up your liquids! (and try not to be far away from a toilet at all times)
    keep up the fibre and look after your iron levels
    stock up on pre-cooked meals or easy meals your other half can cook, when i hit 3rd trim it seems i have no urge to cook at night also very handy for when bub arrives.
    get your nursery/bub stuff a bit at a time or beware the annoying amount of packaging and cardboard that will clutter the house.. ugh

    and avoid getting a cold, as i feel like crap!

    Do get you DH t help out with all the big stuff including the washing basket
    -Stock up on meals
    -Nest as early as you can cause when ur at the end of the third trim , your tired, too large and get stuck on the floor
    -Taking your other kids ten pin bowling is an exteme sport when u r in late preg- i learnt the hard way,hehe
    -enjoy the good parts cause most people focus on the negative
