will the body hair go away?

Question

so my daughter is born with plenty of hair on her head, so the lanugo on her body must have been a lot haha now that she is born she still has some lighter hair on the back of her shoulder and just above her ankles. Will that hair fall off by itself after a while?

Answer

It may fall off, or it may just lighten up. My mom said that when I was born I had a full head of black hair and a ton of hair on my arms, legs and back. her words were "you were so precious! just like a little baby ape!" Thanks mom, super cute. But I didn't stay hairy!! lol
