no title

I have been thinking since I went to my last doctor check up, About making an apointment with a dermatologist..... Im on the fence.... and i am somewhat afraid of the result being worthless. Being pregnant kinda stops all medicine and treatment for most everything. Wont it be the same for alopecia? And for some reason I keep thinking that maybe i will just grow it back.....

then yesterday i noticed something....

all my spots are on the left side of my head....pretty muchs covers the whole side just about.
well its going to the right... when i felt it in the morning i thought maybe i was just feeling things and crazy....but then i go to work, and the massage therapist noticed when she was rubbing my neck.....and she dont see my spots, I wanted to cry right then and there.

So originally I scratched off going to the dermatologist...waste of time and money right? If im gonna loose all my hair anyway, what can i do....especially if I have a while before i can take anyhthing but tylenol. 6months with a bun in the oven and then months of breastfeeding.

i want to be a happy glowing prego, instead im more worried about being bald then being fat.

You should be a happy glowing prego - you may miss that feeling one day and you'll be kicking yourself for worrying about your outer appearance than worrying about everything inside you including your baby. I once knew a woman who lost all of her hair everytime she got pregnant but otherwise had a full, thick head of hair! It alwasy grew back right after. I can't promise the same will happen to you cause I grew hair everytime I got pregnant and it fell out again after but hormones really seem to play a major part in alopecia. You have much better things to worry about than your hair! Enjoy :)

i dont know about others but for me the right side grows better (when it does grow) which i have always thought of as odd. remember to let it out once in a while. at first it might be every day, but soon it will be less and less you cry about it all. one day it will be once a year! hopefully! i havent gotten there yet
