Hair never the same after having DC?

I had my first son in 2017, 4 months after my hair fell out a lot but looked ok and if eased. Then the following year I was quite stressed and it started again. It's never been the same since and it makes me want to cry as I've has to have it all cut off as it was so thin. I've gone from really long below boobs thick hair with a fringe to fine shoulder length hair. I'm pregnant again and I'm terrified how my hair is going to be after this one as I don't have much to spare!
Did this happen to anyone else?

Yes, my haired really thinned with my pregnancies and i haven't ever got it back. My kids are 14 and 15! Life stresses hasn't helped either ....
It might be worth talking to your GP about this and I'm sure there must be something that can help.

Did you take multivitamins?? I had the Pregnacare ones

My hair/skin was actually great during pregnancy but sometimes it can be lack of some mineral or vitamin.

I would definitely mention it to GP or midwife. Good luck!
