The left side is the side thats recomended because it gives the best bloodflow. But im never comfortable on my left. But im also 38 weeks so if i lay on my back or right side i get pressure on my aorta which is bad and why once you get really big you shouldnt lie on your back. But as long as you are comfortable lay how you want. You will know if you are getting pressure on the aorta. Sleep while you still have comfortable positions. I get very little sleep because nothing is comfy
