Weird things happening

thefussybunch · July 2014

Anyone else have weird skin or body things happen after baby?

I just got my eyebrows waxed (like I've done for years, but it's been a while) and my eyelids and above totally swelled. They also itch like a mutha. So strange.

This. It happened after my son too but eventually went back to normal.

I can't wait for the shedding. My hair should start falling out in fistfulls shortly if last time repeats.

Ugh me too. It's been driving me crazy the dry feet. I had to put towels on my recliner because of the way it felt

I've started to break out on my face, coukd also be from poor sleep

I also have little bumps on the triceps of my arms.

The shedding doesn't bother me (other than the fact it scared me last time, I was not prepared for it to look like a small rat in the shower when I got out) but the regrowth sucks. I cut my hair to hopefully help disguise the regrowth that is still very short from DS1.

I have way more acne. It is not a ton but there is consistently some on my face, I did not have this before

And ditto on the dry feet, I am wearing sandals a lot now too which probably isn't helping.

My hair is falling out a lot more and my skin is more sensitive too, like leaves a bright red mark on my face if I scratched an itch there which is annoying. And my hair is growing a lot slower than when I was pregnant but that's a good thing! Don't have to shave so often

I have these stupid little bumps on one of my knees and on both triceps. Kinda like zits but not.

thefussybunch · July 2014

Oh and I forgot to add pregnancy mask (dark spots on my face) not going away. It lightened, but I can still very much see it.

My hair doesn't curl like it used to since I've had DD1

my feet are dry too! I was wondering what was up with that.

My hair is falling out in ridiculous amounts. My face looks like a greasy, teenage boy. The body odor is insane.

I skipped a shower one day and developed some serious stank. Even my clothes and sheets became disgusting. I've never been so grossed out by myself.

keeumm · July 2014

I have eczema type rash on my shoulder, never had that before. Agreed with the stink. I might have to change deodorant.

MissLadyTay · July 2014

My hair is so dull and lifeless. It looked great while pregnant and it's changed completely. And I have way more grey hairs.

I've used 3 different kinds. Don't work

some days even showering and scrubbing don't work either. I think to were all more sensitive to the smell. Dh "says" he can't smell me

I just read that my Secret clinical is supposed to be applied at night. This confuses me. Won't my morning shower wash it off? I'm willing to try it, though.

Add me to the stank list. Ick.

I also had an allergic reaction to the sun last week for the first time in my 33 years of existence.

thefussybunch · July 2014

I can relate to so many if your posts and I'm not sure if I feel better since I'm not alone in this, or badly for all if us

My arm pit hair doesn't seem to want to grow back since i last shaved it....I actually don't even remember when the last time I shaved it was....wierd.

Ditto the dry, cracked heels. But for real the hair falling out is alarming! I thought it was due to my thyroid going out of whack during and after pregnancy, but maybe it's a common thing. I would say though if the hair loss continues, consider having your thyroid levels checked as this can be associated with a thyroid imbalance as is dry skin.
