    Maternal Somatotype means your shape. there are three somatotype shapes which are:
    endomorphic - generally shorter, round and cuddly
    mesomorphic - more average height and generally more muscular
    ectomorphic - tall and generally slim

    I am guessing that if your somatotype had an effect on the ability to scan you probably are endomorphic. But you are right, nothing to do with the bub at all.

    Sorry, I don't know about left sided stomach.

    ETA - Just had a though - not sure if this is relevant but they may be alluding to something which I think is called Isomerism where the organs in the body are a mirror image of what most people's are. It isn't anything to be worried about and while not common at least one person on BB has it (and they only found out by accident - and I can't for the life of me remember who it was this minute). Not sure if this is the case but it is just a though. It may be that the stomach is one of the first organs that has a place in the body that they can see on ultrasounds IYKWIM but I am not sure about that at all.
