Caprece had thrush when she was a week old and it was just really thick white stuff on her tongue and breastfeeding didn't hurt or anything.
Now she has sort of white patches on her lips (not like just after a feed) and they can't be wiped off, Her tongue is a wee bit whiter but not like last time, my nipples are really sore (and she hasn't been latching differently although it could be a crack as it kinda feels like it) and look a bit white sometimes. Could this be thrush even tho its nothing like last time or maybe something else? TIA |

Quite possibly, I would take a trip to the dr tomorrow. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

| My MW told me that thrush on the nipples often feels like sharp stabs that go up the breast from the nipple. |

| Hehe OK that's good that it hasn't manifested into thrush / nappy rash! Hope the dr can sort you out with something for the rest of it though. |
