hair!

Am I the only one freaking out about my baby not having hair when he comes out? lol I don't know if it's because I'm obsessed with my own locks or what, but I just really want him to have hair. I think he will because of his dad's origin, but STILL...praying for hair lol

I think the formula have him cradle cap.. but the hair loss from me brushing it out like everyone told me to do.. DONT do that if he gets it. It doesn't help anyways. We've been doing baby oil on it since and its almost completely gone now. And we obviously stopped brushing and his hair is cimming back!!! (:

oh no :( I hope that doesn't happen when I have him because I'll probably switch him to formula when I go back to work :/

You still have plenty of time to have more heartburn, wait til 3rd trimester hits.. Trust me it can get bad! im 20+5 & have to take tums or zantac after every meal, havent even hit the 3rd yet...ugh!

Oh wow, it sounds like he's gonna have lots of hair!! On a positive note, there's not too much longer until you find out :)

I never once had heartburn with my son and he came out with a full head of hair about a half inch or more. It was blond like mine but it was there. :) I haven't had any heartburn with this pregnancy yet but I hope baby has hair like my son or more. lol

My little boy came out with some hair not a lot and to top it off his hair is blonde. I remember someone telling me ur baby has no hair and silly me was like all babys are born with no hair and my friend has her son a month later and came out w a lil fro!! Which is weird because both my husband and I have massive hair! But oh well it will come when it does

I had a week of heartburn around 15 weeks, but none since then lol but his dad is half spaniard/half indian and I'm mostly cherokee so I'm hoping he'll be well endowed in the hair department, lord knows I am!

I really want my baby to have hair too! I had super long, thick, black hair when I was born and my hubby had a little bit of blonde hair so I"m super curious. I hope he gets my hair genes though. lol My hair was so long when I was born the nurses in the hospital had to cut it because it was in my eyes.

I'm the same way, and the old wives tale says that if you have a lot of heartburn baby will have a lot of hair, an it better be true or I'll feel cheated!
