Hair loss?

When is PP hair loss too much?

What can we do about the hair loss?

I have thinner hair to begin with, I don't have bald spots or anything like that but my hair is coming out fast and I am starting to get a little scared that I am going to wake up bald.

Re: Hair loss?

  • I think everyone has that fear because the hair loss is SO much. Remember that the average person loses 100 hairs a day. We held onto that hair for almost 9 months, and it is all coming out now. It seems horrific, but I swear you will not go bald. I swiffer several times a day right now because there is so much hair around. It is gross.

    I think that even a small amount of hair looks like a lot when it comes out in the shower or afterwards, especially for people, such as myself, with ultra thin hair.  I'm pretty sure I read that we are just losing the hair that would have normally been shed during the pregnancy but wasn't due to hormones.  You've probably been enjoying slightly fuller hair as I have, but unfortunately it was fleeting.  Don't worry about going bald, you won't.  You'll get used to your old hair texture again.
