Help the Tatas!!
Urgent question for my SIL. She has been nursing her son for 9 months and has been battling thrush on and off since 2 months pp. She's been in constant pain but toughing it out.

That whole thing sucks! I would be using tons of lanolin and drinking apple cider vinegar and well as rubbing it on after sessions. As much air drying/free noontime as possible. Sanitize her bras! Hot compress and massage! The ped can rx drugs for thrush too! Have her tell them!
Edit: my rx said to put on after nursing and wipe clean before next session
Thank you, I know she tried coconut oil, just not sure the type. I'll let her know.
She said he won't take formula at all and won't drink breastmilk if it's been refrigerated or frozen. He only likes it from the tap or if she pumps, he'll drink it at room temperature.
That's awful. Has she thought about pumping? Sometimes this late in the game, it would be difficult to respond to a pump. She should be so proud of making it this far, though!
She could always try pumping instead. Since she's sanitizing the parts afterwards and the baby uses a bottle, they wouldn't pass it back and forth anymore.
She has a bacterial infection, thrush, dermatitis and impetigo. ? Poor thing has been suffering for so long! They gave her the ointment and an antibiotic. They told her she may have to stop breastfeeding because they'll just keep passing it back and forth to one another.
Thanks, PP! I just told her about the vinegar and will ask her about the violet.
A positive update, she's already responding to the meds! ??
