“Why is it uncomfortable to sleep on my left side while pregnant?”
I am a 27 year old female. I want to know why is it uncomfortable to sleep on my left side while pregnant?

You do not have to sleep on your left side at all, just try to not rest flat on your back. Your body will find its own comfortable sleep position and that is fine. If you are around 20 weeks or so, pain on your sides may be your uterine ligaments stretching.
There are many reasons depending on the problem. Most women are most comfortable on one side or the other in late pregnancy.
