Postpartum hair loss

I'm 5 months post partum and my hair is falling out!!!! I know it's normal/hormonal but has been going on for over a month.... and there is SO MUCH!!!! I have thick hair so can afford to lose a fair bit but when will this stop!?!?! Is there anything I can do to slow it down/minimise it? I take a general multivitamin already.

It will calm down soon, or at least it should. Me and DD both have thick hair and seem to be shedding at the moment. You're probably got a bit of losing hair for the summer mixed with postpartum hair loss.

You'll be fine Wink

Oh it's horrible isn't it!! I am now 6 months postpartum and still losing hair but it has slowed down a lot! I've been taking multi vitamins and the odd iron tablet but no idea if its actually made any difference. Hope yours slows down soon x
