Unnerving
I do realize it is normal to lose considerable amounts of hair a couple of months after having a child. I'm told this hair is extra hair, acquired during pregnancy and as such was nothing I should feel at all attached to or entitled to keep.
No one has commented that I'm looking a little straggly, but I wonder if I'm not leaving a trail of long, dark blonde strands behind me as I go about my business, and brushing my hair is, well, something creepy.
No one has said how long this will go on, and while I am of course pleased that this is nothing to be alarmed about, I have to say, the rather wide range of peculiar and extreme symptoms that are considered unremarkable while pregnant and in the post-partum period makes one wonder if one will ever find one's body familiar and predictable again. ("I seem to be growing a tail." "Oh, don;t worry about that. I'll drop off at some point.")
Spring has arrived, but the feeling that I am shedding is making me uncomfortable.
But now I must run because Felix seems to be trying to roll over and needs an audience.
