ALSO, your body is so use to the prenatal vitamins for the upkeep of your body and your baby's health while your were prego.

Try a Centrum for Women or something that is rich in calcium and beta carotene.

The bad news is, is that no matter what you do your hair will fall out like crazy after you have a had a baby. The reason for this is that normally your hair goes through a process of growing and falling out, a few hairs a day. However, while you are pregnant the cycle stops and you do not lose any hair for 9 months, so their is a lot of catching up to do. The good news is that after about 4-6 months your hormones, which have dropped considerably, will normalize and your hair will go back to it's normally pre-pregnancy cycle. You will also find that you have a lot of new hair growth all at once as well which will take a while to fully grow out. As for your hunger, if you are breast feeding keep in mind that it is normal for you to be hungry as you need extra calories to produce milk. It takes a while for everything to go back to normal after having a baby give yourself another month or so and you should notice a decrease in your appetite. Make sure you take some sort of vitamin supplement, especially if you are nursing. Nature's Choice makes a good one. As for hair treatments, try Ojon, you can get it at Sephora. It works amazingly well on dry or damaged hair and has an incredible date palm oil smell.

It's completely normal to lose some hair after giving birth. It'll eventually slow down. I started taking the vitamin MSM and it help with so many things especially if your breastfeeding. I'm sure it is to do with hormones - apparently alcohol and a diet more than 20% fat increase hormones such as testosterone and estrogen or progesterone, while being pregnant raises the other of estrogen and progesterone - I'm not sure which of these might be responsible or even something else but I'm almost certain it's all linked. I've heard that hair loss can be caused by your hair follicles response to testosterone. Hope this helps in some way

Whatever you do, do not do braids at this time because your hair is weak and the pulling will make you lose more hair. Best course of treatment is to use Motions(yellow %26amp; purple products) Critical Protection Repair. Some call it CPR. Use the shampoo %26amp; conditioner. The product gurantees to stop breaking hair after the first use. From experience I know it works. Use regularly because it coats your hair.
