My daughter is almost 5 months old... When will my hair stop falling out?!?!?!?

UGH!! This is REALLY starting to freak me out!! I remember the first time I pulled a FREAKISHLY huge handful of hair out of my hair brush... it was about a week after Thanksgiving, so my daughter was almost 3 months old. I thought, "hmm... this is disturbing..."



I researched on www.babycenter.com why new moms lose so much hair (GREAT website, BTW... love it), so I know why, and I also know that hair loss after giving birth is normal...



BUT ARRRGH!! I really am starting to worry, and I wonder if it will EVER stop falling out! I'm starting to really get scared! It has been falling out for 2 months now! I have always liked my hair... Now, at a time when I am unhappy with the way I look (I hate my new post-pregnancy body), I really can't emotionally afford to have such thin hair, too!



I'm not really sure what I am looking for here... Reassurance? Rememdies? A hug... haha... Understanding? Validation? I don't know...

i asked this same question on here at about 5 mo's lol.



we've made it to month 8 - almost- and the hair loss hasn't totally stopped, but it's not shedding and getting everywhere constantly anymore. once i started eating more calcium and balancing my diet with less processed foods, lots of water, too... it helped.



i have this in common with other moms too. it could be related to a lack of protein and nutrition mixed with breastfeeding, baby's sucking it all out :) so make sure YOU are taking care of you, too...i know how that can be.



mothering.com has a lot of good recipes for moms, bf'ing moms in particular because of their dietary needs.

Get a good haircut--seriously :-)



That's what I did and it made a world of difference for me since mine fell out for several months and I didn't have much to begin with...

R U kidding? Your a mom now, it will always fall out!

My son is 6 mo old and I will let you know when my towel stops looking like Cousin It washed his face with it. I'm thinking 9 months, since it stopped shedding for approximately that long it will probably take an equal amount of time for that hair to stop falling out.

I can't give you an answer but I can tell you I'm sure you are a very beautiful person and not to stress..that doesn't help much..lol and I can't give you a hug so this will have to do ((((((YOU)))))) lol I hope everything works out for you and remember..don't stress =0) Good Luck!!

Are you still taking your pre-natal vitamins? It might help. I didn't have this problem but if I did I would think it was nutritional or hormonal....Make sure you're eating right and talk to your doc about it. Good luck :)

Maybe check with a doctor for reasurance.I have three kids,two of which are twins and I never experienced that,Does it have something to do with breastfeeding?I'd cut sick if my hair started falling out.Maybe your could try the NUTRI-OX system,it is designed for thinning and hair loss.It feels good on the scalp.

Just take it easy . It will solve in another 6weeks. Good luck!

I'm experiencing the same thing and my daughter is 5 months old! Luckily I have very thick hair. Everytime I take a shower, I literally pull out another head of hair! I'm wondering when it will stop too.... At least you know you're not the only one!! :)

My son just turned 4 mths and about a month ago mine started to fall out. I hate it cause my hair is everywhere and the baby constantly has a strand wrapped around his little hand and he's chewing on it. Gross gross gross. After my first, it last until he was about 6 mths. I also never had thick hair and feared I was going to be bald at the end. I even though about getting rogaine but they don't recommend using it for postpartum hairloss. Congrats a your baby and don't worry, loads of other women are in the same boat. And about the postpartum body, I have some good muffin tops going now since the birth od the baby.
