    What Lulu said. Totally normal.

    I had dramatic hair loss from about 3mths after giving birth until about 8mths after. I mean clumps of hair when I washed it.

    Not to scare you but I started to look like I was receeding around my temples. Was shocking and I went to the doctors but its all normal and it grew back. I jsut have short bits there now until they grow long again.

    It's normal, but if you're very concerned about it, pop into your GP and get them to check it out. Severe hair fall is often a medical problem, not something a hairdresser or special shampoo can fix GL, I hope it's just the hormone aftermath of having a baby and will fix itself up soon

    It is totally normal - one of the things they don't tell you about having babies With both of my girls I had a lot of hairloss from when they were 3m - 8m. It does look like a lot but it generally isn't noticable.

    I agree with all of the above.

    I noticed I lost a bit due to my daughter playing with/pulling it when she was a tiny tot, so if your daughter likes to yank on it, perhaps get a strong necklace as a substitute!
