Hair Loss

[Guest guest]

Hi Jenni,

I am 7.5 mos post op and 4.5 months pregnant.

I was experiencing a lot of hair loss and I asked my OB if I could take

gelitan tabs. He told me that it was ok to take them, they are just a form

of protien. I have been taking them for about a month now and have noticed

a big slow down in the hair loss.

How much have you lost total? And how much do you have to lose? I have

lost 125 pounds and still have 80 to go. I really wanted to get to goal

before getting pregnant, but oops, that didn't happen. My husband and I had

been trying for 12 years to get pregnant, we went through infertility

testing and found out it was my husband who had the problem. I guess I did

too because of my weight. Well we were trying to be careful, but not

careful enough. Anyway I am very excited to be having our miricle baby.

We had one child 14.5 years ago and then adopted 5 years ago. Now I am

pregnant with our 3rd child.

Sorry so long. Good luck with the hair loss and pregnancy.

HI

I have lost 120 lbs and only had 29 lbs to go ( I am 179 and wanted to weigh

150) I never thought of Gelatin Caps ! I may try that especially if I keep

loosing more hair! there is hair everywhere all over my house !! But I have so

much hair you can not even tell Any way Are you still loosing being pregnant??

I have already lost 3 lbs. and I am 7 weeks. Which some people do loose weight

when they first are pregnant but not me I always thought WOO HOO I am pregnant I

am eating what I want . But this time I have been good so far.

How Often do they check the growth of the baby ? They have 3 ultrasounds in the

next 13 weeks. Congratulations on the baby !!
