sleeping positions when pregnant

Is there a sleeping position I should avoid when I am pregnant? Or can I continue to sleep on my side and my back?

i was told that around 12-13 weeks you should stop sleeping on your stomach but the best position is on the left side. however i find it to uncomfitable so i sleep on my right side

Ok, thanks ... I will try that. I am 18 weeks, so we will see.

I don't know the exact week, but eventually you are told to ly on your side and avoid your back and stomach.
