My 4th baby is almost 5 months old and I'm losing my hair at an alarming rate, it's at the temples, hairline but by far the worst is the crown. I've always had very fine hair but hairdresser has said a lot of it.. I took some photos and I have visible bald spots and you can see my scalp in lots of places now. I've always had a little hairloss after pregnancy but nothing like this. I had my bloods done recently as I am still spotting / light bleeding since birth but all seemed normal (I'm not breast feeding if that's relevant). I feel so self conscious about this ive felt like crying all day. Has anyone else experienced hair loss this extreme and if so did it come back. Also any tips for hiding this would be great. I've been tying it up but the thinning at my temples doesn't look great in a pony tail either. I've added some pics for reference, I've searched the web but haven't seen anything as bad as mine Sad
