Just curious mommas, in which month does the baby start growing hair inside? Im in second trimester and these small things make me so excited to imagine. Anyone knows?
Baby's hair starts developing around the 14th to 15th week of pregnancy, though it's very fine. When my baby was born via normal delivery, she had a head full of thick hair! It's a beautiful process, enjoy every bit of it.
Around the 4th or 5th month, baby's hair starts growing. My MIL used to say that severe acidity means the baby is growing hair, though my doctor laughed at it! It's fun to hear these traditional beliefs while waiting for the baby.
From what I know, the fine hair starts growing in the second trimester, around the 4th month. For healthy baby hair and skin, my mother told me to eat soaked almonds daily. But always ask your doctor if you plan to start any new supplements.
Scientifically it starts around week 14 or 15. Honestly, there's nothing special you need to do for it. Just take your prescribed calcium and iron tablets regularly, which are cheap and essential for overall baby growth.
I am currently 24 weeks and also wondering about this! My app says baby's hair starting growing around week 14 or 15. Do you also get crazy heartburn, or is that just an old wives' tale about baby hair?
