Same here. I thought that your hair was supposed to get BETTER! Mine just keeps falling out. I started using Pantene Pro-V Breakage Defense and it's helped some.

I've heard that this is pretty common during pregnancy and your hair should grow back once the baby is born. Like Pitbullmommy said you may try changing your shampoo/conditioner to see if that helps any

If you are experiencing hair loss during pregnancy, it could be a sign that you aren’t getting enough minerals or vitamins. It is best to get the problem checked out by your doctor to ensure it is nothing serious and to ensure you are receiving the proper nutrients for you and your baby.
Hair loss is also not uncommon in women who have had miscarriages and abortions. These are all things that affect estrogen hormone levels, which is what affects the hair growth and loss cycle.
A few things can be done to decrease the chances of hair loss during and after pregnancy. They include avoiding pigtails, braids, and tight rollers, eating plenty of fruits and vegetables containing flavonoids, using shampoos and conditioners that contain biotin and silica, avoiding very hot blow dryers, and taking vitamin B complex, zinc, vitamin E, Vitamin C with bioflavonoids, and biotin supplements. x
