I guess it's because that's the most comfortable position to lay on for you and the baby,
Sorry... I'm not exactly sure.
I'm not like an expert on pregnancy.
However, I am far more knowledgeable than the average male teen (I am 15) about babies and pregnancy.
Just two years ago my mom was pregnant with twins!!
Since they were born, I've had to do a lot of helping out etc.
So now I know a lot about babies that will really help me in life when I become a father.
By the way, I'm really glad you're on my contact and fan list.
I don't know exactly why I added you at first. I kind of felt like it was a divine calling to do so.
Ok... Sorry to spam your question. Forgive me

Helps the blood flow to the baby. My left side has become more comfortable to sleep on since I've been pregnant.

The major artery that is responsible for supplying blood to your fetus and the bottom part of your body is towards your back towards the right side of your body. The weight from your growing uterus puts pressure on this artery if you lie on your back. The best uninterrupted blood flow is when you're lying on your left side.

Sleeping on your left side will increase the amount of blood and nutrients that reach the placenta and your baby.

Because of your aortic artery that runs down the lenght of your back. It is the major supply of blood to the body below your heart.

because when you sleep on your left side more oxygen gets to the baby whereas if you sleep on your back or right side it doesn't get the same quantity.
good luck

because laying on your back can put pressure on the main artery carrying blood to the baby and lower body.

It improves the flow of blood and nutrients to the placenta and it helps your kidneys efficiently eliminate waste products and fluids from your body.
