| Hiya, I got this with my son..he is my first born.. it's only just stopped and he's over 7 months now. My hair was literally coming out by the handful, when I was in the shower loads would come out..it's lucky that I have a lot of hair otherwise I think it would have been really noticeable! I asked my hair dresser when I last went and she said it was totally normal and many women get it after having babies and that the wispy hair regrowth is normal as well. Don't worry it will stop, it's just your hormones getting back on track I suppose! x |

| I had this after Thomas too, from when I stopped bf at 3 months until he was around 7 months old it came up in handfulls. I actually developed noticable bald/thin patches around my hairline . It has started again this time but nowhere near as bad (yet ). The hair did start to regrow quite well but I think getting pg so soon again has stopped it fully regrowing. I'm hoping it will grow back properly now. xx |

| Mine is still falling out It's driving me mad. I suffered from Alopecia throughout my teenage years and I got a bit in my third trimester so I'm used to it falling out. However I haven't had it since she was born and it didn't start falling out until Amelia stopped BF at around 12 months. It's still coming out randomly now she's 17 months. I'm lucky in that my hair is thick but I'm sick of the regrowth. |

| Mine did the same, it was embarrassing especially at the hairdresser but she said its normal! In the end I had to have lots cut of very blunt to try and make it look thicker, I am sure it was about a year when it started to look ok again!
It is completely back to normal now thank goodness! |
