What is it when a twenty month old baby is losing her hair

Answer 1

i would take her to the doctor right away

Answer 2

It could probably be...laying the baby on its back...when you lay a baby on it back...it hair will come out...because it s often sleeps on the back of its head...!!!

Answer 3

Sounds really scary! I would ask her pediatrician right away! Could be her losing some of her baby hair, but it could be indicative of something much more serious!

Hope the best!

Answer 4

There could be a lot of reasons why the child is loosing hair. The one thing that comes to mind is the eating habits. Some children who do not get a certain amount of protein or Iron my loose there hair. Also, children that are around 4-10 months may loose there hair and grow it back after a certain period of time. This is more common than the eating habit.  

Answer 5

My son was younger than that but lost all his hair, eyebrows, everything. It all grew back though right after... so it might be okay.

Other than that I agree that diet may have something to do with it...
