PP hair loss is driving me nuts

I feel like I have to vacuum the floor every day. I could probably make 50 bald men happy with all the hair I've lost. When does this end? It's making me feel horrible about myself.

    I'm dealing with this too.  I'm scared when I wash my hair... and I never want to brush it either.  There's always hair ALL OVER DS.  I'm over it!

    ME TOO.  I was actually going to post about this. Anytime I just run my fingers through my hair at least 5-10 strands come out.  I won't even mention the shower.  I find hair everywhere and I'm so sick of it!

    Thank goodness for this post!  I couldnt figure out why my hair had suddenly started falling out like crazy!  I was thinking it was stress!  I hate it, its everywhere!

    i don't know how much longer it lasts, but i'm ready for it to stop. like, yesterday. urgh. i'm thankful i had a ton of hair to begin with... otherwise, i think i'd be getting a little self-conscious.

    I am not worried about going bald, but let's just say I could go without a plug in my bathtub to take a bath. I hate digging clumps of my hair out of the drain.

    I've reached a point where I am debating shaving my head.  I am beyond caring about going bald, what bothers me somuch is that I have such little time to myself and shower time is a "treat" but now instead of enjoying it, I spend the whole time fishing wet hair off my hands!  Grrrr.

    I could stomach the hair loss until it actually started looking like I have male pattern baldeness. Now its starting to bother me. My hair is literally receeding and getting thin across the top two sides. I'm not being self conscious. I brought it up to DH and my mom and both said, well I noticed but wasn't going to say anything. My hair line looks like its receeding worse then DHs. I really hope this is only temporary and it will grow back. Does anyone know? I'm getting a hair cut tomorrow and will be requesting some sort of shaggy bang to try to cover this up.

    Love the new siggy picture.  You always have the cutest pictures of David.  Don't feel horrible about yourself.  You have gorgeous long hair - I would die for some.  I'm having the same problem, so don't worry - you're not alone.  In the morning time, I shed like crazy.  I'm hoping it doesn't last much longer.

    On another note, how are you?  I miss talking with you.  I hope David and your DH are well.  We are good, but I think going through the 4 month wakeful.  Remi has turned into a newborn again waking up every 1-2 hours.  I swear, I haven't got any sleep lately since she hit 3 months.
