Hello! My baby girl is almost 3 month old. We both have a thrush for 2 months. She has a yeast diaper rash, but no sign of oral thrush. And i have a nipple thrush, which is not going away. I am putting All Purpose Nipple Ointment after each feeding. I took 2 weeks of Diflucan. Also we tried Gwntian Violet, doesn't work. Now i am taking coconut oil&putting on my nipples before each feeding. As for baby, she took Oral Nystatin foe her mouth, and nystatin cream for diaper rash. But it's not helping. Saw pediatrician yesterday. She said diaper rash looks goodz use nystatin cream. But we stoppes using nystatin craam ans drops. Coz it is not effective. Baby and i taking probiotics. What else i can do? I ordered GSE grapefruit seed extract citricidal. Gonna try that. Can you help me, may be somw of you also had such a problem? Oh, and also this is second time we are having thrush, after i took antiobiotics. I am getting crazy, don't know what to do. 😭😭😭😭😭

Keeping your nipples clean and dry helps prevent and clear the thrush up. If you have the ability to shower and stay topless to air out that can help. Washing your breasts before and after baby eats and wiping her mouth clean can also help. Antibiotics sadly fix one problem but can create more. It may take time. Coconut oil is a good way to go. Normally I would say put breast milk on but I believe thrush is a type of yeast infection and in that case the breast milk can make it worse because yeast feed off of sugar. How long did you use the Gentian Violet? If it is remaining beyond the antibiotics and other remedies known to work it may not be thrush and you may need your doctor to do a culture to make sure. This is definitely a situation where the doctor needs to be involved so the correct treatment plan is formulated. Hope this helps!
@xryztalroze yes, i am trying to do so. Ped said it looks okay, just use nystatin cream
