Mine is too, but it should stop soon... At least it did last time...

I asked my OB about this with DS since all of the books say you retain your hair. He said it is very common to lose hair, not to be concerned. I am shedding like MAD now, far worse than last time. I hope it does stop soon! I have tons of hair but I hate finding it everywhere.

Thanks ya'll! I dont remember all these things/symptoms so the tiniest thing I am freaking out.

I'm losing my hair like crazy! After I had my daughter it literally came out in clumps, and just started to ease up a few months ago. Now to start all over again. It's driving my husband crazy because he is constantly having to unclog the drains and the vacuum! Gross.

Mine too! I notice in the shower. I don't remember this from last time around...I thought hair was supposed to get fuller!

It comes back. See! Here's a little clump that I had lost when I had my 11 month old, haha. Annoying.

My hair is falling out a ton---happened with DS last time---then my hair got fuller and thicker during my second and third trimesters. Then it all fell out again post-postpartum. This time I feel like my hair is super dry too.

I've got a ton of these too are 3-4 inches long. My hair is going to look like a hot mess after this one...

I haven't experienced hair loss in the first trimester BUT holy bald Batman...after I had my daughter it came out in HUGE handfuls for the first few months.

I thought I was going crazy! My hair is definitely falling out like crazy and it's super dry also! Hopefully you guys are right and it stops after a while,

I already lost a lot in the last year due to autoimmune... and had to cut it short... no more please

Thought something was wrong with me when mine started shedding really bad. It is not as bad now but I am still losing some... When should it start to ease up?
