Mine was around the 4 month mark

My little boy is nearly 3 years old & it is still falling out 😩

@Rachel have you gone to the doctor to see if you have any deficiency? It should’ve resolved by now

@✨Wis 🇭🇹 no I haven't but I spoke to a hairdresser & she said it is normal. It is not as bad as it used to be.

@Rachel I would still do some blood work see if everything is up to normal. If there’s a deficiency at least you can address it. Normally blood work should be done PP but unfortunately most OBs don’t do it

First baby it was about 3/4 months pp and lasted a few months. This time I am being religious with vitamins and hoping it helps.

4-7 months!

My hair started at 3 months and just stopped at a year, I now have little tuffs of hair at the front😫

I didn’t lose hair but I also didn’t gain hair during pregnancy as others do.

Around 4 months

Mine feels so thin! I'm only 2 weeks PP and hoping it'll stop within a couple of months like my previous

Fell out at 4 months for about a month and then it started to grow again after that x

When I was pregnant I lost almost half my hair 🙃and got a scalp infection and was very sick like puking 10 times a day and was almost hospitalised due to dehydration...my body generally took pregnancy as a shock I think lol

Started around 4 months stopped around 10 months dark hair too so really obvious. A trichologist told me just brush brush brush. She said it stimulates blood flow in the scalp and follicle and no amount of vitamins will work because they are not in your system quick enough

Mine started at 3 months and stopped at 10 months. Im currently rocking the postpartum bangs

I didn’t notice mine falling out at all, but I definitely noticed all the baby hairs re growing around 15 months. Now we’re 18 months and any way I wear my hair they stick up everywhere 😅

Started at about 3 months and got back to normal around 5-6 months. Now I have random tufts of hair that stick out as they're growing in 😅

Started at 4m and stopped around 6-7m. I do take “hair skin nails” and hair vitamins, plus collagen powder though.

First time started at 4 months pp and lasted until about 6 months. Second time started at 3 months pp and lasted until 8 months.
