Babies: 3 - 6 Months

hair loss

Is anyone else's hair falling out like crazy?  I feel like I'm  shedding all around the house and clogging the shower drain like never before!  Is this normal or should I be worried?

Re: hair loss

  • Yep, mine has been falling out like crazy. It's normal for it to happen around this time. I just hope it doesn't last too long, or I'll be getting some bald patches!

  • YES! So glad you asked this. I'm pretty sure I'm going bald.

  • Oh yes!!! I always shed a lot but it is so much worse now. I swear it looks thinner on the sides and in the front. My hair is all over the house. I read it is very normal and will go back to normal soon. I think if it's get very bad then you can go to your dr about it.
  • I feel like I am going bold.  Around my edges its the worst.  I have pretty thick hair if this keeps up, I will be wearing a wig.

  • Thank God!  Not that I'm balding, but that it's normal and not serious.  But seriously, my hair is EVERYWHERE!

  • Ewww, YES!  Practically by the handful... so gross.  Know it's totally normal, but hoping it doesn't continue for too long

  • My husband had to use the plunger on the shower drain the other night bc it was so clogged with hair! I just got several inches cut off and got shorter layers put in to make it look a little fluffier. Works for now.

    Ditto this! I'm super bummed about my hair falling out, since my hair is realllly thin to begin with anyway. :(

  • Same here! I thought so something was wrong with me at first and when I asked my mom she freaked me out more! (Saying I had a vit deficiency and it wasn't normal) so I called my dr and they said it was normal and shouldn't last more than 6 months because your hair doesn't shed like normal during pregnancy and now that the hormones are settling down its falling out.

  • This is happening to me now, too! Comes out most in the shower! I hope this passes soon - it is getting thin on the sides. Oh- the things they don't tell you when your pregnant.
