Hair loss after birth
Okay so i've always been one to shed on a daily basis, but at the rate i'm going... i'm going to be bald soon.
When does the hair loss stop? Please tell me it stops!!!

Re: Hair loss after birth
I started losing it at 4month pp and it lasted until he was about a year 
However it was only 2 months that it was BAD and then it tapered off. I have been on prenatals for a while and noticing nails/hair better again. I know NOTHING can prevent the hair from coming out (its hormonal) but vitamins may help a bit. It WILL stop, it just stinks!!
(and not everyone loses their hair i've been told, but all my friends went through it except one!)

Yeah i actually didn't stop taking my prenatals after my son was born in hopes that my hair wouldn't fall out. Boy was i wrong!

Re: Hair loss after birth
I feel the same way!! I lost soooo much hair this time, I have to bald spots on the front sides of my head, the same thing happened to my friend after she had her son and she said her hair started to grow in and stop falling out around 6-7 months.

 Really it was that bad? I'm so afraid that it's going to become noticeable if it keeps going at the rate it's going...

Re: Hair loss after birth
Mine stopped at 6 months. If it is really bad you may want to ask your dr. Mine said that is one sign of a thyroid problem.

Re: Hair loss after birth
Mine started at 3 months PP and at almost 6 months PP it's still going strong. I swear I'll be bald if this continues...my hair wasn't that thick to begin with
