I understand it is sometimes normal for women to lose hair while
nursing, even when taking plenty of vitamins. Anyone here ever
experienced this? How long does it last? Does it grow back?

It isn't that your hair falls out because you're nursing. It's because,
while you're pregnant, you tend not to lose hair you would normally lose.
This means, post-partum, you shed more hair than you normally would
because
you are losing not only the hair that you would normally lose, but also
the
hair you should have lose while you were pregnant, but didn't. Generally
speaking, it is a non-issue and you don't lose so much hair that you run
the
risk of going bald, nor do you need to grow back more hair to make up for
the loss.
But you may lose enough hair to break your mil's hoover. ;-P
