Have really got

Hello,

Which of these sentences sound best ?
1. Now I have really got heavy bags.
2. Now I really have got heavy bags.
3. Now I have got really heavy bags.

To me it sounds like the first example is most common, because you can replace the word 'really' with 'still', 'always' etc. as in " I have always got the wrong...blah blah". Am I right?

Thank you

The first two seem about the same to me. They claim that the situation is certainly that I have got bags that are heavy. The third one has a different meaning.
