Pregnancy for some women can be difficult. Some have to deal with nausea/vomiting, fatigue, mood swings, etc. I dealt with extremely swollen ankles as I approached full term. However, if anyone had told me about the benefit of hair growth and fullness, I probably would have taken more pictures! I can't tell if the hair growth came from the pregnancy itself or the fantastic
prenatal vitamins. I am leaning towards the vitamins, but time will tell. They say all good things come to an end. So, I am doing my best to address the postpartum shedding that I have been warned about. After reading and taking advice online, I've come up with a regimen that I believe has minimized excessive shedding. In the meantime, I am continuing my prenatal vitamin intake, as I am nursing (and possibly still benefitting the bi-product of decreased shedding/hair growth). It also goes without saying to eat foods that are nutrient-rich.

You may have noticed that conditioner is the regimen's star here. Afro-textured natural hair thrives when moisturized!
