Yeah, echoing others - nothing really works to stop it. Just know that it is totally normal and way more will fall out than you think is safe. It leveled off for me around 6-7 months PP

Yeah I kept thinking ok, I knew this would happen. I knew this would happen. Holy f*** this is too much to be losing!

Pretty sure my hair will never be the same. My baby is 2 years and I have significantly less hair than pre pregnancy...

It’s normal to lose your hair at this time. My hairdresser said she has seen it in every postpartum client around 3-4 months. It’ll grow back itself in a few months, speaking from my own experience.

4 months pp with #2 and I feel you! It’s unfortunately totally normal. I was expecting it and so I pushed back my first pp haircut until it started ... and then that got canceled because of COVID 😭.

Embrace the ponytail and headbands, mama! And count down until the hairdressers reopen.

That is a natural effect because of the rebalancing of your hormones. I took prenatal vitamins to help, but for 9+ months, your hair didn’t fall out so it has a lot of making up to do. Wear headbands to hide it, if you can/need to do so. It will grow back and look normal again in 3-4 months. Best of luck!

Definitely can’t avoid - sucks. Would recommend organic black castor oil to help speed up growth in any particularly troublesome spots!

I just massaged a drop or two onto the spot for 2-3 minutes once a day. If you search castor oil / hair loss there are a lot of remedies out there depending on your hair type. I found that less is probably more!

Thanks girls!!!!❤️❤️❤️🤗

1. Grapefruit sized cyst on right ovary 2. Unknown object with no heartbeat (maybe a hematoma) in the gestational sac with my baby 3. An empty gestational sac

I (36F) am married to another woman (34F) and we have a baby (5moF). We split all childcare, cleaning, meal prep, errands etc fairly evenly and it works well.

My friend (35F) recently took a business trip and literally put a binder together with instructions for her husband re: daycare drop off and pick up, what to feed the kids, when to take out the trash and so on.

Parents who have or have had a baby. How was the first year or two for you? Was it awesome, was it terrible, did it change your relationship with your partner? Did you regret it, did you want out? I've heard that having a baby can really change things between you and your partner and that a lot of marriages fall apart at that point. Just interested in stories and feedback.

Also curious if one partner kind of pressured the other into having a child/was driving force in wanting the baby.
