With DD 1 my hair didn't start falling off in clumps till about 4 months. This time, with DD 2 I think it started some time between 1-2m! I need to chop my hair off!
When did your hair start falling off postpartum?
-
@regberadaisy: 4 months for LO 1 and 3 months for LO 2 and it stopped around 7 months. It started up again after weaning LO 2!
-
Started at 4 months and still going at 9...although it's considerably less than when it's started.
-
At about 3.5 months. We're at 5 now, and I'm still losing huge clumps and wondering if it's ever going to stop. Plus DS has started grabbing my hair and pulling which 1) Ow and 2) Mommy doesn't have hair to spare, kid.
The worst part is I never got that great, full pregnancy hair people talk about. I have naturally thick hair, so it's not too terrible in back, but my hairline is seriously crazy looking.
-
@Danizaur: Same!!
I have little tufts growing in, mostly in the front by my bangs. I just got my hair cut and my stylist was like... I can *try* to blend them in.... but there's not much I can do. -
@regberadaisy: Mine started around 4 months and was insane - like could pull out handfuls in the shower, ugh - and it's finally stopped now around 11 months PP. I have all these wisps around my hairline, and I have curly hair, so I look a mess most days.
-
Six months. Ugh... I thought I'm in the clear when I passed the three month mark, but my hair had the last laugh.
-
Around 7 months. It was awful!
-
Around 3 months. I'm almost 8 mos. PP now and it's starting to get better (FINALLY).
-
around 2 months, was finally noticeably better around 7 months.
-
Around 5 months for both LOs and lasted about 3 months.
-
It started around 4 months, but I never noticed the thickness shedding since I have so much hair to begin with. The thing that bothered me most was the hair loss and spark plug regrowth along my hairline. It started around 6? 7? months pp... and to this day (almost 2 years pp), i still have spark plugs along my hairline.
-
Around 4 months..
I'm now at 8 months PP and it is growing back and such a mess.. I can see people glance up above my forehead at my lovely 2" bangs. Ugh!!
-
6m here. He's now almost 2 (in Feb) and it's STILL not grown back. I have all these stupid wispy things that seem to never grow back.
-
@ValentineMommy: ouch - that's rough!
-
Nooo, really?! I'm 5 weeks pp, with no hair loss and thought I got lucky! Sounds like it will happen down the road ...
