A. 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 is alsbo a cause for frequent shedding of hairs. along with traction alopecia because of continuous pressure on head in lying position. to resolve the problem of cradle cap you can apply flutivate e cream overthe scalp for one week and then discontinue but if the problem persists then you should consult your doctor for proper treatment.

A. U Can you get your child’s head shaved off that’s the best thing that you can do because that with the entire cradle a layer is going to be away from the sketch it would be very easier for you that way to deal with it so my advice to you is definitely going to be the same
