Hair Loss ?

I just wondered if anyone else had suffered hairloss after giving birth, my LO is now 4 months and my hair has been coming out over the last few weeks and is now starting to come out in clumps. I am off to the GPs next week, but just wondered if this was happening to anyone else?

    Yep, it's completely normal! I loose hair like you wouldn't believe, but that completely stopped when I was pregnant so it's making up for it now!

    Yes I'm surprised I'm not bald!!! Hubby continually moans at me as he finds my hair everywhere!
    And sweating and being hot. Does anyone else find they are just hot all the time? I used to be such a cold person

    I'm the same arlik...everyone else is shivering and I'm in a short sleeved t shirt.

    Does the hair grow back by the way? I'm losing so much I'm starting to get worried.

    Thanks, glad I am not alone in the hair loss dept !!! Spoken to a few friends who have all said it does grow back but slowly .....

    Thankfully not having the hot sweats, had them all through pregnancy so glad to see the back of them, I do feel for those of you suffering with them though.

    I've always been a molter....but it slowed right down when I was pregnant and now making up for it- I'm sure it's the reason the plumbers been out 3 times to unblocked the drains!

    Oh yes me too !! I am not sure but I thinking it is slowing down a little bit ?! Does anyone know more or less when it slows down or stops ?! I read too that it may grow back differently for example if you have straight hair it grows back curly or vice verse ! lol Posy I am too always very hot !
