Pulling Out Hair??

Brit&NateBrit&Nate
in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
DD has started to pull at/out her hair when she gets tired at night. She only does it as we're giving her the last bottle of the night and she's falling asleep. Any ideas how to get her to stop?? She doesn't have much hair to begin with!

    DD did this around 10-11 months.  She was pulling her hair HARD.  She still does it now but it very gentle when she pulls it.  And it is only when she it tired.  I am not much help but you are not alone.  Maybe if she learns it hurts to pull it out she will just pull at it gently.

    DD used to do that too. ?I found if I gave her something else to hold (her little lovey) it kept her busy. Now she only does it once in a while.

    DD does it too, and has been for a couple months.  Not as much now as before, but def when she is tired.  I didnt realize that other babies did it too, but sounds like its just one of those things they do when they they are tired.  I was worried that she would end up with a bald spot but I havent seen a problem.

    DS still does this and he's 2 1/2. He twists it and then pulls. The doctor just told us to keep it short. He makes huge bald spots. Most of DH's family including him twist their hair when they're tired. I would love to see some tips too.
