What Causes Numbness In Upper Lip, Left Hand And Blurry Vision During Pregnancy?

Hello am 34 weeks and just experienced a short lived numbing in the upper lip, left hand and blurry vision.. Is all done now but just curious. The baby is still moving. I had an appointment this morning actually and my blood pressure was fine. And the baby s heart rate was normal.. Aside from this my pregnancy has been pretty smooth. Should I worry?

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The symptoms you present are vague and to come out with a diagnosis will need keen medical evaluation.With a normal blood pressure, i will suggest you also get a Fasting blood sugar as in most women, it rises in the second and third trimesters(gestational diabetes) is common and may give you those manifestations.If the result comes normal, just observe and get on a healthy diet.If it persist, you will need an ionic work-up as ionic imbalances may provoke such.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
