According to John Hopkin's, Lack of sleep is more than an inconvenience. New research suggests that women who don’t get enough sleep during pregnancy may have higher risks of developing
pregnancy complications including: preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, and longer labors

Current research supports the recommendation that pregnant women sleep on their side from 28 weeks onwards. Back sleeping can place pressure on the major blood vessels which supply blood to the uterus and oxygen to the baby. The left side is considered ideal, but you can sleep on your right side for brief periods. It’s important to avoid back sleep. Remember to:
Start each night safely by lying on your left side. This is the position you're likely to hold for the longest period overnight.
If you wake overnight, always reposition yourself on your left side.
