Temporary jobs in Adelaide

I will be moving to Adelaide in May, when I'm 7 months pregnant. I would like to work for a month or two - right up until I give birth if possible. Are there temporary agencies where I can go to get temporary work? I'm a native English speaker, with extensive sales, management, marketing, and even administrative experience. Will employers discriminate against someone who will be very pregnant?

I'd like to get an office job of some sort, because from what I hear from other pregnant women, I'll feel like a whale by then.

I can't imagine waiting around and just settling in until the baby is born. My cousin in Australia suggested that it would be difficult to even get temporary employment, and that I should volunteer instead, to keep busy.

What do you think?
