Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. hair loss in babies is very common and because of many reasons.
Because of the withdrawal maternal hormone initial hairfall is there.
After birth all the hair of the baby remain in the resting phase and usually by 8 to 12 weeks of age shedding of hairs is there .
Hairs will grow back mostly by 3-7 months but a proper quality hair will be there by around 2 years of age.
Cradle cap may also be also a cause for frequent shedding of hairs. along with traction alopecia because of continuous pressure on head in lying position. to resolve the prohdblem of cradle cap you can apply flutivate e cream over the scalp for one week and then discontinue but if the problem persists then you should consult your doctor for proper treatment.
