Hair today...

Am I a freak of nature or what?!? I know that one of the side effects of giving birth is that your hair falls out more for a while...but what if it NEVER STOPS!? I had Monkey almost 5 years ago and I'm still losing my hair like crazy. Every day that I take a shower I pull out so much hair. I have a special corner in the shower to hold it all! I don't save it to make a hair doll or anything, I'm not crazy! (Do you know what movie that's from, the hair doll?) Said hair is removed after every shower and thrown away, or else Hunny gets very grossed out and eric-tated at me. I do not blame him! And I don't even want to go into how much hair is there if I have not taken a shower in a day (this rarely happens). I can stand in there after shampooing and conditioning FOREVER pulling hair off my fingers, twirling it and sticking it in the corner. Yuck! And speaking of things that are supposed to be only during pregnancy...getting up a zillion times a night to pee is getting ridiculous. I am STILL doing it! Seriously, at least twice a night, if not more. Small price to pay for my sweet, loving, adorable (can you tell I'm trying to convince myself?) daughter.

My hair still comes out in bunches. You actually stop losing your hair when you are pregnant. That's why so many women have such thick, luxurious hair when they are preggers. It's completely normal to lost your hair. It's because it's being replaced by new hair. Don't worry. The longer it is, I think, the more that comes out. Or maybe it's just the more you notice it. You are NOT a freak of nature, my dear Tennis Ball.
