It started around 3 months and now I'm almost at 6 and it still comes out in clumps. It is so gross. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91785 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 20:44:33 +0000 Sweet T 91785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I've been meaning to post about this! I'm so glad you made this thread!</p> <p>I was 3 months post partum when the hair loss started. I'm now 6 months post partum and it's still pretty bad. I have really thick hair anyway but it's still a lot worse than it was pre-pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91774 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 20:02:10 +0000 lemondrop 91774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nothing yet for me at 2 months out- I did notice that I don't have to shave my legs nearly as often since the baby arrived. </p> <p>A friend of mine said her hair loss started at 3 months pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91773 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:51:47 +0000 anbanan15 91773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost a ton...To the point where my shower could not drain and I had bold spots:(. I had to get a real short hair style to minimize the noticeability of the shedding. However, I'm not entirely sure if it was all post-partum related. I was also suffering from I thyroid condition an taking medication that cause hair loss. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91771 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:40:51 +0000 Rubies 91771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 4 months postpartum my hair started falling out in crazy clumps (especially in the shower)...It was GROSS. Now, at 7.5 months postpartum, I am noticing that the shedding is slowing down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91769 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:31:09 +0000 owlmom 91769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine didn't become noticeable until about 3 months, but since then, I've been losing it by the handful. I'm pretty sure I'll be bald soon if it doesn't slow down. I'm 5 months pp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91765 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:28:55 +0000 heffalump 91765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. But I was also taking a medication that makes you lose your hair so I never really knew what was at fault. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91764 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:24:15 +0000 chopsuey 91764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost a normal amount of hair (same as pre-baby). I had super long hair though. After I cut off about 6 inches, I noticed a decrease in shedding.<br /> I don't remember when it started, but I think within the first week? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/postpartum-hair-loss#post-91760 Sun, 11 Mar 2012 19:21:36 +0000 autumnlove 91760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you experience a lot of shedding? When did it start? </p>
