6. Critical for Pregnant Women
Pregnant women are circulating blood for two bodies, an intense job that requires a greater blood volume to accomplish. Meanwhile, a growing infant expands the uterus and puts pressure on the spine and other organs.
Lying on the right keeps circulation flowing freely and takes the pressure of the baby off of mom’s spine, plus protects the liver from being squeezed too much. Overall, lying on her right side provides the best blood flow for both bodies.
