Why is my baby's hair shedding?

Hair loss in babies, also known as alopecia, is a common phenomenon and is usually not a cause for concern. This can occur due to a variety of reasons such as hormonal changes, hereditary factors, or simply because the baby's hair was not fully developed when they were born. In most cases, baby's hair will grow back within 6 to 12 months after birth. However, the rate of hair growth can vary from one baby to another, and some babies may have a longer or shorter time for their hair to regrow. In some cases, the baby's hair may not be the same texture or color as before, and it may grow in differently. If you are concerned about your baby's hair growth, it's best to consult with your pediatrician.
