Default Hair today, gone tomorrow <sigh>

I havent posted in a while, since I had my hernia repair. Thanks so much for everyones advice during that, especially you Dale! The things you told me taught me so much and I really spent a lot of time researching what I should know, and I took all of the info to my doc. I learned a lot, and I got the most cutting edge high tech procedure there is.

Anyway, on to the next thing. I am about 11months out now, and my hair started falling out in handfuls around 7-8 months. I had long hair on my shirts, on my pillow, on my clothes. My kids were picking hair off of my like fleas!!! It went on for about 4 months, now it is tapering off. My main question is. Does this hair grow back??? Or am I just stuck with thin hair now? I already had baby fine hair, but it was very thick, now I have baby fine thin hair. It's so not me!! Hate it.

Anyone out there got there hair back?

I'm just about 10 weeks out and just noticed major hair loss today. I never heard of anyone losing it this early.......is that weird?

When you start to lose hair does it fall out evenly or is it patches? Unfortunately I'm a vain chick...I don't know if I can handle bald patches...thin hair yes...bald spots no!!

I'm hoping my hair grows back straight....My hair is just one big curley puff on the top of my head!
