Losing Hair!!!

[MJANEW1979]

Hi Girls

Is anyone still having hair loss after pregnancy? My babys 21 weeks now and it still seems to be shedding more than normal. Does this grow back and thicken again. Its so frustrating finding hairs even in my babys nappy!

Any advice would be great!

Hair doesn't shed much during pregnancy, that's part of the reason why some people look so healthy and 'blooming' in the last few months. It will seem like you are losing tonnes of hair for a while, but it will get back to normal, plus you'll have lots of lovely new undamaged hair growing back soon so don't worry!

I lost loads, and for about 6 months I think! It was getting into the food and everywhere. It does stop eventually - it just gets back to how it was before as you don't lose it in pregnancy.

I think I am going to be bold soon LOL but good thing im pregnant again so this should reverse things i guess

I'm still losing hair - have never seen it look so thin! Think it's starting to slow down now though - for a while it was literally coming out in handfuls when I washed it.

I thought it was just me....
clumps are coming out in my hairbrush and theres always loads in the shower
ive booked and appointment with my gp as its worrying me.
peter says it looks worse than it actually is cause my hair is long (down to my waist) so it wrapps around the hair brush doesnt stop me stressing over it though.
I know its only hair an it'll grow back but im still worried.
