losing it!!
and i'm not talking about my mind. although with all i have going on you'd think that. haha. but no, i'm talking about my hair! post-partum hair loss is a bitch! it's seriously so freaking annoying.
i didn't really notice it with my girls. i mean, my hair has always shed like an animal. but i started noticing it this time several weeks ago. when im showering, it's the worse. i run my fingers through my hair and get chunks! then when i brush my hair, it doesn't even look like a brush anymore but like i'm brushing my hair w/ a cat. wtf.
then the strands just keep coming out throughout the day. i can even touch my head without a strand falling off. hair is always all over my clothes. we're constantly having to vacuum as it gets all over the house and car. i even found a strand in my salad the other week! UGH! (do not let me prepare you any food without a hair net.) i absolutely hate when it gets on baby boy so i'm constantly checking him! man, it's a nightmare. Attack of the Hairs. eff.
and then i was sitting on one of those white plastic lawn chairs the other week. well all the hair that was on my clothes or ready to fall out was attracted to the chair. when i got up the chair was COVERED in hair. freaking hair chair. it was so gross to me. had to gather it all up and throw it out!
i already notice it getting pretty thin. i wouldn't be surprised if i had to start wearing a hat soon. gosh, just feels like a lot is falling out. pretty soon, i will look like this.

here's a pic from yesterday. it doesn't look that bad yet. i have it all in the front though and it's seems about 1/2 it's usual thickness.
im debating on doing a shorter cut like a bob cuz long hair just really sucks right now. most websites i read say your hair is back to normal anywhere from 6-12 months postpartum. i hope really soon cuz it's lame.

it's so hard to study...
...with a hubby and 3 LO's. i sit down to study & one daughter wants help getting a snack. i sit down again to study & the other wants help reading a book or playing a game. i once again try to study & the baby boy is ready to eat. and when i am actually in front of my work, the girls are wrestling with thier loud lil mouths and the baby is grumbling cuz he just wants to be held or the hubby wants me to help pick up around the house or help fold laundry. & when i actually do fold laundry, i don't always get to put it away right away & the girls manage to mess them up every time...
oh lol. it's always something. almost never uninterrupted.
but i realize i kinda love it. i like the chaos & busy-ness or i would go crazy in boredom like i do when i'm not around them. BUT at the same time, i do get out every once in a while for time to myself or i would also go crazy :D
it's so hard to study, yet alone get out of the house to make it to school. on time. im always rushing to make sure the girls have lunch & that sabrina is dressed & ready for school (thank god for sabrina being on track break, heh) gotta make sure i have all the books i need in my bag. then i try to breastfeed the baby boy right before i leave. i often make it out of the house without even getting the chance to brush my teeth or put on my makeup. which is just seriously scary. thankfully i always have wisp disposable toothbrushes in my purse. love those things.
& then when i get back home from school, i usually immediately have a baby that wants to breastfeed, messes that are made that need to be cleaned up, & i gotta help the kinder kid w/ her homework. through it all, i have to find a few hours to get what work i need to get done for the day. ahh. i wouldn't have it any other way though. life is good :)
alright. well. i need to go study.
