Yes, both my kids do it. DD grew out of it around 9 months, I think. When DS pulls my hair, I tell him "gentle," detangle my hair from his grasp, and guide his hand to practice gentle touching.

She just turned three months old and she started it about a week ago. I don't know when it'll stop but it does hurt!

Yes--and he has since 3 weeks or something. At 5 months it is only getting worse.

@Honeybee: haha we're trying! She's at that flailing grabby stage. We're def trying to teach her gentle with the pup, she loves to grab her ears!

My little guy is just over six months and he loves pulling my hair, especially while nursing. I chopped off most of my hair because I was tired of putting my hair in a pony tail. Besides, he would pull the pony tail whenever I held him over my shoulder anyway. He still pulls at whatever he can grab and it hurts because he has a pretty strong grip!

Never! Hahaha! Just kidding. I think shortly after they start walking. At least it was with my first. I just cut 5 inches of my hair and it got a little better. Less to pull.

All the time! It hurts! Sometimes she'll pull so hard that when I get her off of my hair she has strands of it in her hands she also pulls my glasses off which sucks, I'm waiting for them to get broken one of these days!

He still does at 16 months, but not nearly as often as he did when he was a baby.

Ugh, yes. I'm pretty sure LO thinks my hair is a rope to pull herself up by! Also, she always tries to eat my hair and I have to pry it from her little clutches. Time for a haircut!
