I had my LO 4 months ago, and now my hair is starting to fall out like crazy... I don't know what to do.. Is this normal???

Yes. Hormones are going crazy.

Totally normal! It'll stop...or so I'm told. My LO just turned 5 months and I'm still waiting.

yes, totally normal. It happened with my 1st baby and it's happening again with my new one. It grows back eventually.

I can't express how glad I am to hear this is normal.. I was thinking about getting a haircut.

I think this happens because of breastfeeding...

Mine started halfway thru the pregnancy and hasn't let up. My LO is 5mths. It is driving me nuts.

This happens because of postpartum hormones. Has nothing to do with breastfeeding. It is your body recovering. It will stop and the hair will grow back.

All normal.

Pregnancy causes your hair to either grow longer / stronger or makes it so it doesn't fall out as much. Now that you aren't pregnant anymore, your body won't retain as much hair and will get rid of the excess hair you had while pregnant. My baby is 5 months and my goodness I have lost so much hair.
