so I read online that you lose a lot of hair after giving birth. has that happened to anyone? is it true?

I just started loosing so much hair!! It sucks so much ):

I lose a lot now 😓

I have always lost alot of hair but now mines getting ticker

so it's true

Yes I lost a lot of hair for about 3 months straight, my mom and everyone would notice it 😳😳

but eventually it stops falling out and regrows! I thought I was gonna keep loosing hair until I was bald lol I just took a lot of vitamins and hair/nail pills in the mean time (:

yes. everyone looses it. my advice, keep taking your prenatal. it peaks 4-6m pp

@_akgirl, are you sure everyone looses it? Because while it was happening to me my mil and sil thought I was just stressing, they swore it never happened to them

yes I'm losing hair every day . almost handfuls of it

I didn't think so either but it's been 11 weeks and I'm just noticing now that a lot is coming out when I'm in the shower now

Yea its been about 19 weeks since I had my son and I noticed that I was losing a lot more then I usely do so I was getting worried

@myworld94, yes, The rise in hormones during pregnancy keeps you from losing yourhair. After delivery, the hormones return to normal levels, which allows the hair to fall out and return to the normal cycle. The normal hair loss that was delayed during pregnancy may fall out all at once.

Take vitamins!

I've lost ALOOOOOT . literally been crying everything I pay attention. started taking vitamins though
