Bells palsy 37 weeks - did anyone experience this?

[cmeiix]

Unfortunately I got diagnosed 2 days ago.
I am almost 38 weeks and now I can’t move half of my face, I don’t know what to do. I am doing my best to be strong.

I was hoping someone could share maybe their experience or someone they know?

How long did it take to recover? What things did you do to recover?

I really hope someone could help.

thank you

Hey!
I was just discussing this last night with a friend funnily enough, she was telling me a friend of hers had the exact same thing, started around 37 weeks and it was because the baby was pushing on some nerves or something. As soon as the baby was born it went away, pretty much immediately! Hope you're feeling OK, you're so close now 💓

Thank you so much @Daisychainsx I really hope the same happens to me.

A friend of mine had this at 38 weeks. It does resolve so don't panic. Hers took a couple of weeks to go - you may be put on steroids also after birth if no change.

@WhenIgrowolder thank you so much for this! I really hope that the same happens for me! I am in fact on steroids right now. I just try to keep stay positive and praying!

Good luck!

@WhenIgrowolder thank you!

up please
