Babies with lots of hair...
Kymbirleigh

K was born with a full head of dark brown hair.... And every time someone sees her it seems like that's the first comment! "OMG look at all that hair!" I hear it daily... Every time someone comes in my office and sees her picture or they see her in person. My in-laws were insistent that it would fall out, and every time they see her they are amazed that it's thicker and longer now. Pretty much everyone in my family was born with a full head of hair... I'm wondering if it's the Native American in us... Hmm...
Anyway, any of you other momma's of babies with tons of hair hear this comment a lot? It's odd for me because I'm not used to seeing bald babies... Well, I guess my cousin's little girl was bald... Actually, she's almost two and K has way more hair than she does...drives my cousin's soon to be wife crazy.

Re: Babies with lots of hair...
Every.damn.day. That's all I hear. No one says he is cute, or asks his name, or how old. It's always "look @ all that hair!"
Love the new siggy pic!
And yes. We get it ALL.THE.TIME. Everyone just swore it would fall out, and nope. Just the opposite has happened. It's gotten longer and thicker (and lighter, lol). I love it though.
A lot of people ask me if I had a lot of indigestion while pregnant. I had none.
I am also a little bit Native American (Cherokee & Chaktaw) but not by much. So, IDK.
LoL! Yes, I get so annoyed that the hair comment comes before the cute comment! I really thought K's hair would lighten up, but so far it hasn't. I have noticed that in the light she's got a tinge of red coming through, so she's getting my dark auburn hair I think.
It just cracks me up that everyone is always so amazed by the hair. I guess when it comes to my family I'm just used to babies with full heads of hair that don't lose it!
PS... Thanks! I love this picture of her. =D
Well I think he's one cute and quite hansom little man.
Thanks! LOL. It's just that I get tired of hearing the same thing all the time. Gosh make it stop, lol!
All. The. Time! Both DH and I were born with full heads of hair so I anticipated either a full head of hair, or bald as a cue-stick until 2 years old, lol!
Every one is still amazed that he hasn't lost any! I am glad he's got a full head because it covers up his cradle cap! However, it does make it hard to try to take care of the cradle cap! I try putting some oil on his scalp about 15 minutes before bath time but it gets stuck in all the hair!
It's also amazing to me how much older he looks that his cousin that is 17 days older. She finally has hair, and it's hilarious how it's grown in so evenly. It's like she's got a little strawberry blonde buzz cut!
ALWAYS... and really she doesn't have THAT much hair. She just isn't bald. She however has lost some hair on the sides
.
I also hate when people call her a he.. um hello she is wearing PINK. No she is a girl. Yes she has a good amount of hair, she is 3 months old, yes i know she is cute.
Oh well.
This is exactly how I am! LoL! I just get tired of hearing the same thing over and over!
And every single day this same woman passes me and asks how baby is... There are only so many different phrases I can say! I feel like I'm repeating myself! =P
I don't get the assumption that hair = girl too! I don't know how many times people have said "aww what a cute little girl, it is a girl, with all that hair, right?" Uh yeah, but what's the hair got to do with it?! Shouldn't the carrier covered in pink flowers be an indicator? =P
Totally! People are daft.
ALL THE TIME- drives me nuts-- then we hear- "she looks just like her daddy!"- yeah- I know- get over it.
Ironically, DH was bald until about 1 yr- LO was born with a ton of hair and it just sticks up straighter and straighter every day
Mommy by the Sea
LoL! K's rocking the rat tail right now.... Oh Lord I hope the rest of her hair catches up to that one long strand in the back!!!
If it makes you guys feel any better, when I see your LO's and think, "OMG! Look all his/her hair!" I'm really thinking "He/She's SOOOO cute and all that hair just adds to the cuteness!" Plus I'm a little jealous that all of Emma's pretty hair has fallen out. All but 4 long strands on her forehead
Yes! All the time! She was born with a lot of dark brown hair, but some has started to fall out. She still has most, especially in the very front and back. Our nurse actually said, "Oh my GOSH! I've never seen a baby with more hair!" Ha!
Awww all your thick-haired babies are ADORABLE!
DS was born with quite a bit of dark brown hair, but it all fell out within a few weeks (except for right above his neck...attractive hahaha)! He is slowly growing it back, but I do think babies with lots of hair are super cute!
We get it all the time too! But I love it! I was born bald, and DH has his really short, so it was such a surprise when she came out all hair (first thing the doctors said too)! :-)
Don't feel too bad, my LO is with yours on this one.
all the time! It's not falling out like THEY ALL said it would either. It's actually touching and growing down her back now.
It's like "yes, good observation...she has hair" haha
I think a lot of people are just so used to babies with no hair or a lot less.
