Hair loss post-pregnancy - is this normal?!

I'm a FTM and LO is now 14 weeks old - hair has been falling out in clumps since 7 weeks (which I understand is completely normal!) but I've also lost ALL of my armpit hair, most of my hair down below and now have patchy arm hair. Anyone else?! I'm not complaining that I haven't had to shave my pits for the last 7 weeks but wondering where all my hairs gone!

Wow! I had raging hair loss after the DC but I think my pits and bits stayed the same.

Maybe tell your GP and get a blood test? Hair loss can be a symptom of anaemia.

I lost hair from my head by the handful after ds but the rest of it stayed as yeti like as ever.

I'd second pp and suggest a trip to the gp
