Try eating higher protein foods like fish, chicken, eggs, nuts. Also things that have a high carbohydrate content will help, Pastas, breads,etc. You can still eat healthy but just eat more and make sure you up your calories. As far as your hair goes it is very common for women to lose a great deal of hair after giving birth this is because of the change in your hormone level. remember when your hair got thicker when you where pregnant. I think you are doing the right thing by talking to your doctor but try not to worry so much it all sounds normal to me. Good Luck and Congratulations on your new baby.
