Anyone else losing hair??!

I just pulled back my hair and saw I completely lost all of my hair on my edges. I can see my scalp!!! Postpartum is serious. Any recommendations to grow it back?

I've been losing lots of hair too I haven't tried all these yet but I have read that continuing your parental vitamins, scalp massages, shampoo that helps with volume, conditioning only the ends of your hair, and not wearing hairstyles that pull can all help.

Thanks Sara! I stopped taking my prenatal Vitamins. I’m going to start again.

It’s normal! Postpartum hair loss occurs, generally, around 3-6 months. This time around (2nd baby) is definitely worse than my first lol. Following general hair care will help (as Sara mentioned above). In time it’ll grow back 💗 so try not to sweat about it too much.

It's hitting me hard too, I look like I've got a receding hairline now. Apparently it bounces back by 1 year postpartum

I starting losing mine at the front. I heard hairless is normal and will begin at around 2 months and last till 6 months with 4th month at the peak. It will generally grown back to normal by the time baby turns one.

I was in shock. Didn’t know it was real!

Dealing with this too! First I noticed more hair than usual coming out in the shower. Then I started shedding hair everywhere, lol. Almost 5 months PP now and when I pull my hair back, it's receding bad on the edges, just like original poster said. I started taking my prenatal vitamins again a few weeks ago, hoping that makes a difference! Sorry to hear that others are going thru this also, but it helps a little to hear I'm not the only one at least. ❤️

Yes this happened to me 5m pp. but i use growth oil and keep My hair braided and wear wigs my hair has been growing back.

Usually you would just have to use extra products marketed to growth. And it would come back.
