No. I shed a LOT but didn't at all during my pregnancy. As soon as my son was born, it all started back again. You probably just got used to 9 months of not shedding. It's not from the epidural though.

No, hair loss is quite common postpartum. It has nothing to do with the epidural. I thought I was going to go bald after my son was born. It does go away.

No, it's not the epidural. After giving birth, all of your hormone levels shift drastically. It's nothing to worry about.

It's just your body doing the hormone hoedown. They are readjusting after having the baby. It will calm down soon. I'm mom to 3.

No, it's a side effect of birth. It is hormonal. Don't worry, it is normal and it will stop in a few months. Eat protein.
