I am not even sure how I have hair left on my head!!

I cannot BELIEVE how my hair is falling out!! I am going to be BALD soon. My hair did not get thicker while I was pregnant and it was really thin to begin with....

I had to clear my drain 3x while I was taking a showerChat Icon

When does it stop?

Yeah - I would love to know when it stops. This morning when I walked back into the bedroom I noticed that the carpet was discolored. I went over to see what it was - a layer of my hair Chat Icon By the time I scooped it all up I had a huge ball of it in my hands.

With DS1 it started at about two months postpartum and ended around six months.

With DS2 it took at least a year! I was horrified!

Hope it's over soon for you!

For me it didn't start right away, but here I am 16 months PP and it is still falling out. I think it's been about a year.

If I remember correctly, I think it stopped around 6 months or so?
I had these stupid looking baby hairs all around my face sticking out!

yea...I would say that is when it started.
And I thought I was in the clear...like the abnormal one who wasnt going to lose hair...WELL guess not!

I literally clumped a ball of hair this am from my brush and then again from the shower drain...etc.

Re: I am not even sure how I have hair left on my head!!

not to scare anyone but you should really have a physical done if its almost a year and its still happening..since I had a physical 4 months after my DS was born and I ended up having postpardum thyroiditis..it can happen due to hormones..its normal to lose hair after birth but if it continues then it can mean more..

Oh yeah, me too!! It started exactly at 3 months and now it's been going on for a month--clumps and clumps, much more than I remember from the first time. Unfortunately, you can't even tell...I was looking forward to thinning out a bit Chat Icon

I'll be right there with you in the wig store! I have really thick hair to begin with but it falls out in clumps. I got 3 inches cut the other day to cut down on the amount of draino I have to use every week!

Let's put it this way... DH and I recently bought a separate Shark handheld vac just for the master bathroomChat Icon

My hair was very thick to begin with but it is definitely coming in a lot thinnerI can see the difference in thickness when I see it on the floor.
