Telogen Effluvium...WHAT?!?

Yes, it is true...I am suffering from Telogen Effluvium, or hair loss after pregnancy. It literally comes out by the handfuls at times, and I need to vacuum like every other day. Brian even asked me about it because he was even finding hairs all over Kayla and on himself. Please Lord, make it stop, I don't want to be the next bald Brittney!!!

I went to the American Pregnancy Association website to look this up:

Supposedly, hair loss peaks 3-4 months after delivery, and should return to normal in 6-12 months...yikes, I will be bald before then!
