When you're pregnant you're supposed to stop losing hair. I did, and it all fell out after I gave birth. Don't worry. It could be hormonal, anything is possible when you're pregnant. Just check with your midwife to reassure you.

People lose more hair in the wintertime--not sure why-I'm 54 and noticed I'm losing more than I use too but not 50-100. Sometimes a certain shampoo I use makes more fall out too-if it's too harsh. Are you sure it's strands of hair falling out or you have breakage? Try a real good conditioner if that's the case.

no, there really is no need to worry. This is the time of year that everybody is complaning about hair loss. My flatmates are leaving traces of blond, brown and black hair everywhere and my hair is spread all over the carpet - the vacuum cleaner is being used every hour! :-) Don't worry, your hair won't be dropping out much longer.

Yes, this is quite normal, although it can go either way. My curly hair went straight and frizzy, and doubled in thickness during my recent pregnancy. I've just had it all chopped off to see if I can get it back to normal. Also, you'll find that if you perm or dye your hair, they might take differently during pregnancy.

Yes, this is quite common during pregnancy, I have five
kids and in all of the pregnancies my wife lost hair. Don‘t
worry, it will all come back.

yes! most womens hair changes when they get pregnant. mine started falling out then it stopped and decided that i'd get psoriasis on my scalp instead!
It changes depending on the trimester too so in another few weeks it could be thick, glossy and the best you've ever seen it!
congrats btw ;)

It is not normal to lose hair.
But sometimes especially in autumn people lose lots of hair because our body get's renwed.
It would be better to go to the doctor and visit yourself.

Its not a "symptom" of pregnancy its just something that happens occasionally, make sure you eat an healthy diet and go to a hairdresser regularly

Alopecia (hair loss) in pregnancy is common. Try 'alopecia pregnancy' in yahoo or google for lots of information.
