Yes!!! It's been going on for about 3-4 weeks now. It's awful and my hair is all over the place. I know this is normal, but how long is it supposed to last?!?!?
I wondered the same thing this morning as i pulled handfuls of hair out while washing my hair, drying and brushing it! I mean I don't have a bald spot or anything but it's everywhere!
Me too and I really started noticing it all over my baby. Now I'm not just pulling cat hairs off his hands before sticks them in his mouth, but mine as well!
It feels never ending doesn't it? My hair loss is pretty substantial. With my first pregnancy the hair shed lasted two months, but I would guess everyone is different. Don't panic it all grows back.
Every hair wash is horrifying lol. Noting prevents it but it does grow back. In a few months you will start noticing little tiny hairs sticking up everywhere , it's not breakage its new hair.
I have terrible hair loss too.. I had routine blood work done which showed my iron was at a dangerously low level!! I thought I was just exhausted from having a baby, hair falling out from postpartum hormone changes.. It turns out my body has been in survival mode and sending the oxygen available in my blood stream to areas that are necessary for survival (i.e. Organs). Hence my hair dying and breaking off/falling out like crazy! Might be something to look into if anyone is concerned their iron is low. I'm on a high iron diet and iron pills 3x/day for the next 3 months
OMG SO MUCH HAIR!!!! I've been shedding like crazy for about 3 weeks. Its EVERYWHERE! My clothes, my car, my bed, my BABY! I have super thick hair and haven't noticed any bald spots but if we keep up this pace I'll be bald by spring!
My goodness I thought it wasn't noticable...oh hell no...i'm getting my father's hairline....my temples are bald...I had a melt down in the shower this am. Its superficial and I know it but my hair has always been my constant confidence. I am over weight, my skin has been a train wreck my whole life but my hair, its always been great---and now its falling out by the handful.

@polkadotteddaisies I'm in the same boat with you ladies. And my edges were pristine before the baby. I read that rubbing castor oil on them should help. My hair thinned out at my temples but the rest of my edges are fine. I'm just grateful to have think hair that covers it.
