I lost loads of hair after both my boys, so I'm expecting it this time round too.

When you're pregnant, your hair stops coming out, which is what give it that appearance of 'pregnancy lustre and glow'. So when you have your baby, you start to lose your normal amount, plus 9 months worth of hair that you didn't lose.

There isn't anything you can do about it unfortunately, it's all hormonal, and will settle down, I promise.

I actually lost so much, that I started to look like I had the two little receding patches like a man gets, at the front of my hairline. Then it came back as baby hair... very odd

This can also be a sign of a hormonal imballance - specifically a thyroid issue. If you continue to loose loads of hair and start seeing bald patches, see a doctor and ask about a thyroid test...

I've had this too, and am starting to worry. It was just a little at first, but now its getting excessive! Maybe I'll call my doctor. I LOVED how thick my hair was during pregnancy, since I've always had very thin, fine hair.
