Pregnant and dyspraxic - serious balance issues. Anyone else?

As thread title suggests I have dyspraxia. I found out a few years ago, in my early 30s when I was being assessed for dyslexia (turns out that I have both).

I know that having a large bump screws up the balance of non-dyspraxic women anyway, but for me, at almost 37 weeks, it's getting dangerous. For example, today, I tripped up on the stairs on two separate occasions (thankfully it was just my shins that took the impact when I stumbled).

DH is getting stressed out with me "not being careful" and I am also starting to panic that I will have a really nasty fall.

I was wondering if any other dyspraxic ladies who are (or have been) pregnant have advice for staying safe through the extreme clumsiness of the final few weeks?
