LO hair falling out :-(

hubblybubbly · Mar 23rd, 2012, 05:34 AM

Willow is now 11 weeks old and was born with a lovely little mop of hair, everyone said it would fall out and now I'm finding it all over her Moses basket sheets and she's getting bald!

If your baby did this when does it grow back? She doesn't look like my baby at the moment!

aww, yeah it will fall out a bit! My LO was born with dark hair which all fell out except for a tuft at the back and sides (she looked like a balding banker for a while) and now she has fluffy blonde hair (still looks bald in photos though!)

Nothing you can do about the hair loss though. If your baby was born with quite a lot of hair then I presume the next lot will grow in quite fast

I´ll keep an eye on this thread because i have a bald baby too. Except for a little bit at the back...she´s got a mullet! Her daddy says she´s all business on the front and party on the back!

Oh no! I thought I was in the clear of his beautiful hair falling out. I love his head full of hair and was so happy when he was born with lots of dark hair

Ah I'm not worried, thought we had got away with it though!

Can't wait for it to grow back, especially as she has weirdly hairy ears like a griffin...and that hasn't gone anywhere!

My LO was born with lots of dark hair, but within 3 months it had all fallen out except the classic "horseshoe" area... it was an awkward stage in his life lol!

It's growing back pretty slowly, and very light and fine. He's only just started to actually look like he has hair again!

My lo started losing her hair at around 5-6 weeks old and it's just now growing back. She was never completely bald though - she had a big patch in the back and some on top.

A little girl a couple streets over from us went quickly bald and was over the age of 1 before she regained a nice head of hair! She just turned 2 and has lovely little pig-tails now!

My LO was born with a covering of ginger hair and it literally brushed off at 6 weeks! He's now nearly 11 week and the blonde hair is growing aplenty. It'll come back, but he looked like we'd shaved his head!
