Completely normal! I had that happen after both of my children were born. Its because the hormones in pregnancy keep your hair that would normally fall out during those 9 months from falling out. So now that the pregnancy hormones are out of your system the hairs that were programmmed to fall out during those months are now falling out. My hair felll out for several months, and i was getting reallly worried! lol But my hair eventuallly got thick again, it just took awhile. The "what to expect the first year" (from the "what to expect when youre expecting" series, commments on this as well). Congratulations on the baby! ann
