LO losing hair

I swear, 3/4 of the hair he was born with has fallen out. He has huge bald spots on his head yet still has full, soft hair down his neck. He looks like an old man! Add that to the cradle cap that he STILL has and it makes for a great combo! Anyone else's LO just now losing their hair? DS turned 3 months yesterday.

  • With the cradle cap we used a little baby oil and kinda rubbed it into his scalp. And then would give him his bath about a half hour later. Seemed to help
