I feel like cutting my hair real short. Its soo dry with the pregnancy. I've had my hair thin out before with my other pregnancies but never become this dry. Will it get better after birth or do I just cut it? Any advice?

If the ends are super dry they will stay that way til you cut them. Regular trims actually help your hair grow better cuz it gets the dead ends off. If its all dry try doing a conditioning treatment on it and then get a haircut if it still feels bad. I'm sure after baby is born it will start to go back to normal. You could just buy a really good/salon conditioner and wet your hair put the conditioner in and put a cap on it and sleep with it.

It's probably the hormones.  Some peoples hair get super dry some get super oily.  It will probably get better after your pregnancy but if you can't handle it til then you can always cut it. You could always use a hair mask.. I like morraconoil hydrating hair mask or super skinny serum or morrocanoil treatment oil just to add some moisture back in there. Also Maybe conditioning your hair twice might make a difference. Instant moisture shampoo and conditioner from Paul Mitchell is amazing.  :)
