My hair fell out by the handfulls from about 6 weeks after the birth of each of my kids until they were about 6 months old. I was losing so much the hairdresser asked me if I was having chemo. I don't need layers cut in my hair, I have layers from each of my babies - except right at the front where it all falls out and it looks really awful for about 3 months. I find it embarrassing. I have had people make lots of interesting comments to me about the way my hair looks and I am so self conscious. I tend to try and wear my hair so it isn't so obvious and as soon as it stops falling out and grows back a bit at the front, I treat myself to a really expensive hair cut/colour/treatment etc to make myself feel better.

I am not looking forward to it happening again after this pregnancy
