    I like the purple stuff they put in their mouth bc it gets rid of it in like 1 day or so. It kind of stains their mouth & teeth & lips for a day or 2 but so worth it.
  • How long do I need to treat her bottles and pacis? I hope they can give her something she will b one month on oct. 5th. It doesn't seem to be bothering her so I think I caught it early but hopefully I can get her in to her pedi in the moring

  • I boiled everything after every use until it was completely gone
  • @amab13 Thank you!
    @Wilsomom do they give it to infants under 1 month?
    @Steph_Due_101611 Is that what the pedi perscribes or is it something i can pick up at a drug store.
    @gatorbob The Thrush is located on her tounge the underside of her top lip and the roof of her mouth :( is it still applied to the inside of the cheeks?
    @EzrasMommy how long did you boil for each time? (minute wise?)

    Thank you laddies for your imput it seems to be starting to bother her a bit :( 5 more hours till they open :(
  • We are encouraged to sterilise our bottles every use here in the UK regardless. Do you guys not do that? I have a steam steriliser and do the bottles every day! I hope your little one is better soon x
  • My daughter had that to for almost a month we needed to inject some medication into her mouth...it was interesting though her expressions to it...
  • Got Aubrey an appt at 2:30 today!
  • The dr doesnt prescribe it. You can buy it at like walgrens or im sure other drug stores. I found it in the hispanic medicine section.

  • They gave me nystatin for her and she is on it for 2 weeks 4xs a day and i have to boil her paci and bottle ( since i still have to suplment) after each use for the next two weeks and after it clears up con. for the next 2 days :/ she doesnt like the medicine but it is fruit flavored so atleast it will taste better than what i was given when i was a baby. It smells like fruit punch lol
  • Hope she feels better soon! Did they give you something for your nipples too incase you have it also? So you don't give it back to her.
  • @trixiesmom8 yes they gave me this funky white onimint that i have to put on have she eats and leave it on till the next feeding
  • That's good. Hope she only gets it this once. Luckily trixie never got it..crossing my fingers I didn't just jinx myself lol
