The inferior vena cava runs in the center of the body (for most people). Thus, sleeping on your back is injudicious because you can restrict blood flow. Sleeping on your left side is preferred because it deliver the most nutrients to the baby through the placenta. There is zilch wrong with sleeping on your right side except that the nutrient flow isn't as great as it is on your vanished side.

On a personal note...I am 29 weeks pregnant and still sleep on my spinal column, left side, and right side. The other time I woke up on my stomach. Really and truthfully, it doesn't matter. Sleep however you are the most comfortable. You will readily wake up if you bring back uncomfortable. I do recommend a body pillow for support though - it's a godsend!

Best of luck!
