I cannot be the only one 😩

[CoffeeChicken]

So I've got CPTSD, which makes sleep difficult anyway, but now my 3 month old won't settle for his dad at night. I don't know why because he's usually fine, but I just had a bath and a huge handful of hair had just fallen out.

I haven't slept properly for weeks, and I'm all too aware that it's simply part and parcel of parenting. But I'm really, reeeeally exhausted. Falling asleep everywhere, hearing noises, my eyes sting from being tired, and now the hair thing. Did anyone else experience this?

I think you should see your GP because the lack of sleep is normal but your body's reaction isn't. It could be something physical like a deficiency or mental related to the stress of minding a baby when you're already vulnerable. But your symptoms are not normal.

Hope you get to the bottom of it.

Ps. You do lose lots of hair post partum but not clumps like you seem to be describing?
