Have been fighting thrush on and off for almost 6 months - since week 6, DS now nearly 7 months. GP v. unhelpful, fluconazole took ages to kick in then he wouldn't prescribe more, so it came back. Watching diet and taking acidophilus have kept it largely at bay - though never completely clear. Of course I over-indulged on the chocky front over Xmas, knew it was a mistake, so have been very careful about eating since then. Last night one nipple became noticeably more sore and sensitive and today I found a white patch on tip of nipple. Tonight burning pain - but I don't think its the same as the worst thrush pain at its height. Never had a sympton like this before.
I REALLY want to keep feeding - why, oh why is it so fraught with pitfalls?
Any words of wisdom gratefully appreciated.
