1 Answer

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 years ago

A. This thin, soft hair, called lanugo, is common: All fetuses grow it in the womb. It usually disappears by 36 to 40 weeks gestation, which explains why babies born early are especially likely to have it. Rest assured that the hair will fall out on its own by the time your baby is 4 months old.
