Symptom narrative

On December 29, 2023, I was 35 weeks and 5 days pregnant when I received the TDAP vaccination. On January 03, 2024, around noon time, I experience face paralysis on the right side of my face and was eventually admitted to the ER. Later that night, I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy and was prescribed to Prednisone. About two weeks later, I regained movement on the right side of my face. My due date was set for January 28, 2024 (first pregnancy). It was vaginal birth. Baby weighed 8lbs 1.6oz.
