Postpartum hair loss

Same! I'm currently taking hair vitamins. I'm now noticing baby hair growing where there was a lack of hair. It won't go back to normal until baby is a year old
Yep, exactly the same. One pass of the hair brush is just insane. I've started sleeping in a satin bonnet so my bed isn't covered in hair at least. We just have to wait it out
It’s depressing isn’t it. It’s all worth it but the impact on our bodies is massive 😣 x
Mines the same, babies nearly 6 months. My hair was fine and short anyway but very very thin now. I’ve been taking nutrition geeks biotin from Amazon as I saw that recommended but haven’t noticed a difference yet
Im the same to, my baby is 6plus months now seems to have eased a little but still molting my hairdresser said its normal as just had a baby hopefully it will stop soon i hate it when it happens 😞 dont want to go bold xxx
I’m the same at 5 months. I’m fed up of my hair everywhere and I’m so thin on top 😢
Same at 4... Its so sad...
Mine went from 3 months post partum until 6 months then stopped completely 😊 unfortunately there isn’t anything you can do about it. Just wait it out
Wear thick Alice bands/ head bands until the hair grows back at the top
Mines was falling out at 12months then I started baby blue postpartum pills the shredding completely stopped my hair is growing and it’s so soft
Im still breastfeeding, any vitamin recommendations? But my hair is exactly the same, never lost so much hair and i hate it its everywhere!
Totally normal. With my oldest I saw baby hair growth around 9-12m pp. keep taking whole food prenatal/postpartum vitamins, magnesium, iron. Eat more protein. Can even do rogaine or nioxin or hair growth shampoo to support. Otherwise it does grow back and then you’ll hVe lots of baby hairs!
Highly recommend hairburstnew mum capsules - breast feeding safe x
Mine didn’t start til 8 months pp. finally slowed down at 18m pp Have your thyroid levels checked. I have autoimmune diseases and mine came out worse than that

Omg same!! It’s ridiculous how much it falls out! 😭
Yeah all the front of mine kept falling out it was horrible until about 2 months ago when my little one was 6 months it’s growing back slowly lol I look like a parrot
Yes mine is same
Yes! I lose so much even though I’m nearly 6 months PP. I have thin hair as it is so it’s such a struggle seeing it fall out😞

My hairdresser advised me to continue taking folic acid to help
