Let's be honest getting a massage during pregnancy can be difficult for both the patient and the therapist.  There have been special tables designed for pregnancy massage as well as cushion systems, and add on fittings.  Basically they all have a whopping great hole where you belly fits and you lie face down during the massage.  Good for the therapist, but what about you.

During pregnancy the optimum position for massage is lying on the left side to maximize blood flow from the vena carva to the fetus.  Sounds simple doesn't it.
