Yes, but more with my first pregnancy than with this one. Last time my hair went from a medium brown to a very dark brown.. Also my hair was thicker and fuller than normal. For both pregnancies the hair on my legs and under arms did not need to be shaved as often which is a blessing since it is getting harder to bend over to do it (I am 36 weeks). And my nails are also growing faster than usual, but more on my toes than hands?

Yes, you are totally normal coming from a mom of 3~I'm sure that you have noticed alot more than that have changed as well:) But not to worry you can always handle that after the baby and the growing nails is normal as well. My hair was totally different when I was pregnant and mine even started coming out alot more than usual.
Good Luck with the new baby!

Yes.....My hair got lighter when I was pregnant. And I have dark brown hair. The reason your nails grow is b/c of the prenatal vitamins you take. Congrats on the new baby.....I have two and they are a pleasure to be around. Mine are two and five months.

Yes.. My first pregnancy I was very blonde.. but by the time the baby was born, it was very dark brown. It lightened up within a year of having my son.. but it has happened to me with every pregnancy. And of course from the prenatal vitamins.. my hair became thicker and much longer! Loved it :) I cant explain why it got darker, but I experienced it as well. Good luck with your pregnancy and child birth. :)

You will get changes from your pregnancy. They say you get new hair in because of the increased blood flow. You might be experiencing new hair growth and yes your nails will grow too. Don't worry its normal.

Yes that is all normal during pregnancy because of the vitamins you take and keep taking them after you have the baby, because you will start losing hair when the harmone level changes.

Yes, My hair got alot softer and it grews alot faster during and after pregnancy. Which is great but I have to shave more often too which sucks. Everyones diffrent though. Hormones do diffrent things to diffrent people. Congrats on the baby!!!!
