I was just wondering if you have a baldy to start with what the chances of the next one being bald are too or are they all completely different??

DD1 was born with a full head of spiky dark hair which is now straight, long and chesnut with streaks of blonde.

DD2 was born baldy and now has hair just like DD1's.

Both dark haired but in a balding fashion

my two were both bald as coots up to their first birthdays. was particularly galling when my sister gave birth to a baby with the biggest shock of black hair you've ever seen. i told her she'd got my babies' share of hair on top of her own...

All three of my dds were born with lots of dark hair, but I have never seen a baby with as much hair as dd3. Still, there was a full moon the night she was born.

DS1 full haed of blond hair
DS2 dark hair but hardly any of it.

Toal opposites!!

bluenosesaint · 31/05/2008 23:01

dd1 - lots of dark hair that stayed dark
dd2 - a fluff of dark hair that went blonde
dd3 - lots of spiky dark hair that turned to blonde spiky hair, and is just about tame-able now

YouNeverKnowIMightFlounce · 31/05/2008 23:06

dd1 bald now 2.5 with bunchies
dd2 bald now 9 months and fluffy lol

Washersaurus · 31/05/2008 23:10

DS1 nearly totally bald at birth, then had a fine covering of blond at around 18mths, he is still a bit fine on top now at nearly 3yo.

DS2 had full head of fluffy sandy blonde hair when he was born

Hangingbellyofbabylon · 31/05/2008 23:12

dd1 full term and bald
dd2 - born at 35 weeks with a ring of dark hair and bald on top like a monk! but... all gone and baldy by full-term so I always wonder if dd1 actually did have 'womb-hair' until she reached full-term!

chunkychips · 31/05/2008 23:14

ds bald until 2 years
dd going the same way

eidsvold · 31/05/2008 23:19

dd1 - head full of dark hair.

dd2 and 3 - very little hair- brownish.

all 3 are now blonde.

Ledodgy · 31/05/2008 23:24

dd - some hair losat a bit in the first few months but not all it stuck up on her head like a mowhawk.

ds1- same as dd

ds2 born with loads of hair has lost some but still has loads of hair at nearly 5 months.

PInkyminkyohnooo · 31/05/2008 23:35

DS born with ginger hair fell out replaced with blonde curls
DD born with lots of dark hair- kept hair but it's gone blonde

jamila169 · 31/05/2008 23:48

Ds1 bald as a coot until he was 2
DS2 wispy brown hair, full head of curls by 2
DD1 wispy blonde hair, shoulder length toffee brown at 2
DD2 lots of fluffy strawberry blonde hair

Miaou · 31/05/2008 23:54

All four of mine were born with a head of hair. Dd1 strawberry blonde, dd2 dark brown, ds1 light brown, ds2 very dark brown. All now variations between blonde and light brown. Never lost any either (except for the obligatory bald patch at the back before they learnt to sit up )

brucelovesfrumpygrumpy · 31/05/2008 23:58

Both girls bald and stayed that way for years!!!! DS born with heaps of hair and has stayed that way forever.

minster · 01/06/2008 10:53

Both were born with loads of dark brown hair but by their 1st birthdays they had masses of blonde curls.

hana · 01/06/2008 11:19

I had 2 baldies and one with shockingly long spiky hair - she was middle one

misdee · 01/06/2008 11:23

dd1-mohician very funny! was dark, went light but now a lovely medium brown

dd2 - loads of hair! was jet black, then went to gorgeous ringlets, then blonde/brown curls, now light brown waves

dd3 even more hair! jet black, then some curls, now straight as a poker light brown hair.

i'm expecting this one to come out with long flowing locks down to his/her shoulders

PortAndLemon · 01/06/2008 11:24

Both of mine born with full head of hair -- DS dark brown, DD strawberry mouse (strawberry blonde would be overstating the case)
