between 6-10 weeks my hair was falling out, but it has ceased and seems to be looking good now!

Yeah, happens to me too, hair feels different, alittle corse and then falling out, in shower, in bed, when I brush - just falling out. I have long thick hair but will cut it off if it gets too bad.
It's all part of the hormonal changes I guess, and perhaps because of a weakend immune system.

My hair is always falling out, but what you may find is where it is falling out that you have new hair gowing already, a lot of it is down to your hormones, it should settle for you soon.....

I was just about to post this question myself.

I've been losing hair so much, it rang alarm bells! It seemed like 40% of my hair ended up on my brush. I guess it's normal seeing as though so many other women have experienced this too. I just hope my hair grows back once this pregnancy is over...you can see my scalp!!!

I wish the hair everywhere else except my head would stop growing and fall out! I feel like a yetti
