    I've read that it can last up to a year. Not very comforting I know. I'm ready to stop pulling handfuls of hair out every time I shower.

    Mine is not just all over the house, it's a nightmare. I don't comb my hair anymore and only wash them once a week as i already have 2 bald spots at the temples :(

    I have hair loss too! My mom told me its normal and returns back to normal. They have an old saying that this happens when your baby will start to crawl

    I have it bad too and to compound the problem my LO has recently learned how to grab little fistfuls of mommy's hair.

    I just brush my hair over the toilet now to avoid piles of hair from accumulating on the bathroom floor. LO is also fond of using my hair as handle bars so I'm glad I have lots of it to balance it all out!!!

    Tell me about it! My hair is everywhere and falling out since week 7 or 8 but definitely getting worse at 16 weeks. Not sure how much more I can lose before I have to get a hair piece. Bleh!

    I've been using hair fibres (powder) to help cover at the temples. Ready for this hair loss to stop anytime soon!!!

    Mine has slowed down, I've been taking vitamins daily and started using a keratin treatment shampoo- seems to have helped the tiniest bit. It still comes out every time I run my hand through it (and don't get me started on the shower or bathroom floor!) but at least it's not coming out in clumps (LO is 5 months old)

    Am I the only one who went the other way? My hair is thicker and driving me crazy. I had to get it thinned out at the salon and chopped off about 4 inches!

    My hair is falling out, but I can't tell if its just from being up in a bun or pony tail ALL THE TIME because its crazy long right now & annoying or if its pp fall out.  I have crazy thick/wavy/curly hair and I want to shave my head most days - even before I had kids.  I don't have the time to spend 45 min drying/straightening/styling my hair, so up it goes.
