Could stress during pregnancy have caused blonde streak in my babies otherwise black hair?
I actually disagree with everyone saying its genes, and i will let you know why… When my pop died when i was five, i was terribly upset and got very stressed out, so did my brothers and sisters, and we dealt with it in different ways-i lost a whole bunch of hair, i was bald in a huge patch. But it was my sister who got a grey streak in her blond hair, overnight. (many people dont believe this, but its true) My mum took her to the doctors, and me, and he said both instances were caused by stress. My sister still has this streak in her hair and she is 27. My daughter has lots of black hair, and a tiny blond streak in her hair, on the right, near her ear. Im not sure that I was majorly stressed during my pregnancy, but perhaps just a little bit of stress affects the foetus, hence why your little one has a large streak of blond in her hair. I wouldnt worry too much, im sure she will not be affected in her adult life, and her lovely hair will be a topic of conversation when she is older!
