Hi guys, its has been almost 5 months now since I given birth to my daughter and I notice I am losing my hair...Clumps and clumps of hair...I don't want to get bald! I want to know if this is normal? Will my hair grow back? Please tell me it is not only me who is experiencing this.

Yes this is normal...I have this going on too and my son is going on 6 months!! It's nuts...I pull out enough each time to make a wig!! I swear. It's lack of protien or something...Calcium maybe? I'm not sure, something like that, just get more of that if you can.

With each of my children after birth the same thing happen to me. When I asked my doctor about it he told me it could be the change in hormonal balance. I would still ask your doctor about it.
