After 7 weeks of having my daughter hair started to fallout lightly. Now it's been 12 weeks and it's worse. I know its hormone related and common. Anyone experiencing this too? I don't want to touch my hair anymore. My hair is shoulder length and am getting the urge to cut it but I don't want to. Any advice or tips, please! Thank you!!
Yep, I have it now too. DD2 is 14 weeks. With DD1 it started the day she turned 3 months, was really really bad until 5 1/2 months, and was back to a normal hair cycle around 8 months. It sucks...and makes a mess!
It just started for me. Last time, it lasted for a few months and then I had all these awesome little baby hairs to contend with. They also tended to get wavy with humidity. It was not a good look.
Me too. Being pregnant it was nice having trickier hair. I have thin hair to begin with so seeing a clump of hair by the shower drain after every time I shower I just want to cry. I'm about 14 weeks pp. Yeah u aren't the only one. (
My DD1 walks around the house saying "ewww! More mommy hair!!" So ya I have the same problem.

I'm surprised I have any hair left. Everytime I touch my hair, I have strands stuck in my hand, falling on my shoulder, etc. I know it is making up for all have hair that didn't fall out while pregnant but I'm pretty sure it is way thinner now. Boo! I just cut like 4 inches off too so I feel like so much hair missing.

How funny because I was just thinking about asking this myself. I feel like I'll be bald by the end if the month if it keeps falling out at this rate! Mine just started about 3 to 4 days ago. Hope it works itself out soon.
Mine started a couple weeks ago and is coming out by the handfuls. My hair is crazy thick, so maybe enough will fall out it will become manageable, lol
Mine started a couple of weeks ago also and seems to finally be chilling out. I just keep reminding myself how long I went with barely any hair falling out to keep myself from freaking out.
SO much fallout these days. I can't keep up with it in the shower. I try to stop it from going down the drain but I can feel it fall down my body and it creeps me out. Blech. It started about 2 weeks ago for me. I don't remember noticing it this much with my last pregnancy.
I also don't think it's fair that this happens when getting a long hair wrapped around a baby toe can be such a terrible event for them. Now that my hair is coming out like mad, I feel like every time DD is fussy when I don't expect her to be, I start frantically checking for my hairs on her.
I kinda remember it happening earlier after having DS1, but I am just entering the shedding period myself too. It started probably within the last week or 2.
