Thrush

My LO did, it didn’t seem to affect feeds at all but I also had to be treated as I was breastfeeding at the time. The only indication she had oral thrush was white spots/patches on her tongue. I also took my LO back to the doctors as the white tongue hadn’t healed after medication was finished, but the doc said the white tongue can last a while even once the infection has gone. X
We started medication today - drops for the wee one and cream for me. She's been a bit fussy on the boob on and off the last week or so don't know if that's related to the thrush or just her being 4 weeks old 🤣 x
Same as above, white tongue and inside cheeks. Didn't bother little man at all thankfully! Didn't quite clear with first round of medication, just starting the second. 🤞🏻
Did anyone find that their LO would spill out so much milk during feeds?
My LO has had it oral thrush since he was one week old, he's now 6 weeks old and still has it even after finishing 2 different types of medication. it hasn't ever affected him but doctors now won't give him any other medication as he's feeding fine and they said it will clear on its own. Hopefully it does bless him
How did you find out that she has a thrush ? Do you have to take medication as well?
