Like clumps of hair continuously coming out. Was pretty terrible from 3-6 months pp. I had bald patches especially near my hairline. 7 months and it's slowed down and I have a short lion's mane around my hairline. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142577 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 12:35:04 +0000 plantains 1142577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine pretty much just stopped, my ponytail is soooooo thin now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142575 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 12:32:57 +0000 SleepyMonkey 1142575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine started at 4 mo pp, slowed around 8 months, and picked up again around 10. or maybe this is what it was like before i got pregnant? i can't tell. anyway my hair looks terrible now. i have this spiky mess near my hairline and i have side swept bangs that are really thin now! its growing back, but i look ridiculous sometimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142429 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 11:13:54 +0000 boots 1142429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine started at 3 months post partum and it was all over. It's just now starting to taper off at almost 6 1/2 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142376 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:51:33 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1142376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine started around 4 months and started slowing down around 9. I lost a ton right at my hairline. It's just starting to get a little longer than a flyaway now and I'm 12 months PP. Otherwise, it was also all over. My hair was coming out in clumps. It looks awful now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142364 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:46:52 +0000 cascademom 1142364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine went from 3-6 months or so. I think that my husband had to Drain-O my sink a few times during that time. It felt like it was from all over. I was so relieved when it stopped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142354 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:43:51 +0000 yin 1142354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It felt like it would never end. I think my hair stopped falling out when I got pregnant with DS2, almost 2 years later. I'm probably exaggerating, but I felt like I always had tiny baby hairs on my head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142316 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:29:05 +0000 skibobrown 1142316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was mostly around the hairline -- or at least it was most noticeable there. I think it stopped falling out maybe 7-ish months PP for me. The re-growth was almost worse b/c the new little short hairs stuck up everywhere. I did a lot with hair product and my straightening iron, but usually I still had these short little 2-inch wispies sticking straight up out of my part every day. It looked awful! Now it's long enough that the new growth will lie flat, and I can tame any frizzies with a straightening iron. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142300 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 10:23:55 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1142300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine wasn't too bad. I shed from 3-4 months pp, now it's back to normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142211 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 09:49:01 +0000 mrs. wagon 1142211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: I have that too! It finally grew long enough where it lies down instead of sticks up. I call it my "mom top bob" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1142204 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 09:47:37 +0000 autumnlove 1142204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Penny Lane: My shower is clogged right now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141771 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 05:52:49 +0000 Bookish 1141771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine just started and it's all over. :( my hair feels so thin now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141766 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 05:40:36 +0000 aprk 1141766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cut my hair pretty short around 3 months pp and never noticed any hair falling out.

Started around 4 months and at 6.5 it finally slowed down! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141713 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 03:00:33 +0000 Penny Lane 1141713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my hair shed by the handful from 2 months PP to around 6 months. I mean, literally, handfuls. I would wake up every morning and my pillow would be COVERED in hair. I would pull out handfuls when I even gently combed my hair. Washing my hair would block our shower drain every. single. time. I was starting to get worried that I was going to lose ALL my hair, when the hair loss just went back to normal.</p> <p>it grew back alright, in a nice fluffy fan around my hairline (front and back) that would not sit down for anything! no amount of hairspray or product could make those little fluffles lie down! </p> <p>I actually just recently cut bangs to hide the front ones!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141707 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 02:18:33 +0000 mrsjazz 1141707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I actually just posted on Facebook tonight about postpartum hair loss.LO is almost a year and a half and I am still waiting for my hairline to grow back. It's just my hairline, I've got a receding one. No more hair has shed but it hasn't grown back. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141695 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 01:43:05 +0000 Boheme 1141695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine just started. I get handfuls from all over when I rinse out my conditioner. I hope it ends quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141694 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 01:36:36 +0000 rachiecakes 1141694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lost a lot around my hairline, all the way around my head. I have long hair and still have this ring of weird shorter hair when I put my hair in a ponytail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141679 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 00:34:04 +0000 lovehoneybee 1141679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine started around 3 months pp and lasted until around 6 months. It was all over. I'd shower and be picking groups of 10 or 12 or more strands off at a time. I'd comb it out and the comb would be full after only a stroke or two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tell-me-about-your-pp-hair-loss-1#post-1141677 Thu, 10 Oct 2013 00:30:44 +0000 autumnlove 1141677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it all over or just in certain areas? When did it slow down?</p> <p>My shedding is bad around my hairline...I hope it grows back!? </p>
