Hair loss baby

My baby was born with really thick dark hair and hadn’t lost any of it. It’s now falling out in clumps and she has bald spots all over her head! I know babies can loose hair but being nearly 5 months she feels quite old for this to be happening suddenly. She also has had a rash all over her face this week which I’ve shown to the doctor and they said it’s nothing to worry about but I’m now wondering if the two are connected. My first had the classic baby bald spot from friction at the back of her head but nothing like this. Has anyone experienced all over hair loss at nearly 5 months? Thanks!

My LO has the same, it seems to be falling out on whichever side he sleeps on more at the time. It all seems to be going through different cycles of regrowth atm. He also has a rash on his face but I assumed that to be a teething rash

My son was like that. He was born with loads of hair and at around 4 months it started to fall in clumps until he lost all his original hair. It grew quite quickly after that again.

@Ana aw wow! I can’t imagine her with no hair! Did his grow back the same colour and texture? X
