...so the story goes

SO the story goes...
Taking the baby in for a four month checkup, I realized how bad this post-pardum hair loss has gotten.
"Ok, Ma'am, can you put the baby on the scale, take off all his clothes and diaper, please?"
Simple enough. Sure no problem...I've done this many a time. The difference is, this is the first time that one of my little ducklings has, what appears to be, a hairball coming from his tail feathers. As a matter of fact, that is exactly what the Med Tech said. As you can imagine, I turned more red than the Sox blanket he was wrapped in.
"haha..." I tried to laugh off. Doctor please!!
Needless to say, I don't remember all this hair loss after the other two. Yes, there was a bit of hair loss, but I'm at the point that a hairnet is about to become my primary daily attire. I usually complain because the dog (triple coat) sheds like she has mange, but I swear there is more hair on this floor from me than her. It's EVERYWHERE!! I wonder if it's because I am older, with a few grays just starting to appear, or my hormones REALLY got out of whack this time. I got my hair cut yesterday and my husband so Lovingly says.."that's not going to fix your problem." Well thank you dear Love of my life, but it sure makes me feel better!! There is hair everywhere! So if I am bald in the next few months, don't be surprised. They do make some pretty nifty wigs. Maybe I will just keep cutting my hair shorter and shorter. ....maybe not...
Either way, I wish the weight would shed as fast as this hair. Then at least I could be a skinny, bald Mommy....Hot, Huh???
