hair falling out

I am loosing a lot of hair. Like maybe 50-100 strands in the shower, more when I brush it, and I'm constantly finding it throughout the day on myself or the baby. What could be causing this? :nails

Possibly, but I don't remember it being this much the first time, and its only started just a couple weeks ago. Baby is 3 months tomorrow :think

I clicked on this thread getting ready to post, "If you're not 4 months post partum, go to the doctor" ... but you are. So you're fine. You'll lose a bunch and then it should start growing back in.

You should still have your thyroid checked about that time PP.

Re: hair falling out

It starts around three months post-partum for me too. It's crazy how much falls out. Totally normal though.

Re: hair falling out

Your hormones change around 3mo pp. Sometimes you'll have some bleeding, sometimes hair shedding, sometimes breakouts... sometimes all :shifty
