I am ! Mine started around 4 months postpartum chunks of my hair started falling out that my hair got super thin. I am now 8 month postpartum and I can see my hair loss is slowdown. I would get so annoying that my hair was everywhere so what helped me was keeping it in a braid at nights and stop using hear on it.

Yeah but I’m not anymore since I’m pregnant again

My hairdresser said there’s nothing you can do to stop the shedding. Your hair basically didn’t shed for 10 months of pregnancy, so it’s catching up all at once. Only thing you can do is jump start the new growth - biotin and collagen pills (not gummies!). It’s rough, but the hair shedding does stop eventually ❤️

I have heard rosemary but haven’t tried it myself

Mine has been falling since from about week 4 PP and itchy scalp too. Pretty sure it’s normal and to be expected. I’ve just been paranoid about scooping it all up because I’m worried about a strand ending up wrapping around baby’s fingers or toes!

can one have biotin supplements while breastfeeding?

It's normal. These have completely helped mine though, and ok if breastfeeding. Has biotin and collagen :https://babyblues.care/products/postpartum-hair-loss-vitamins

Yes 😊

Has anyone experienced hair loss after weaning or later than 4months? My baby is now 1.5yrs and I’ve notice a lot more hair loss recently.
