No I'm not bf she's bottle fed. She's 3 months next week x
She might need another course, we were nearly on 3 courses when his cleared. I found putting some on a clean finger and swiping it around his mouth better as it was also coating the sides of his mouth and roof not just his tongue x
@Lesley she's just going onto her 2nd course. I will try this thank you x
Yes my baby boy needed another course x
My baby boy had it for 2 months tried about 5 or 6 courses of nystatin as daktarin isn’t being made at the moment 🙄 honestly a nightmare felt sorry for him as it disturbed his feeds.. however when we did the last lot of nystatin we measured out and then put it into a cap or something and dipped our finger/dummy in and rubbed it everywhere and kept repeating. As we found using a syringe it was just hitting his tongue and not the roof of his mouth cheek or gums so it didn’t go away. Make sure to sterilise the dummy or give LO a new sterilised one after as thrush can stay on tears and contaminate mouth again and do not give milk for an hour or so after it to let it sits in your LO’s mouth that finally worked for us!

Yes!!! 3 courses and it still hadn't Cleared, we called EVERYWHERE and finally got daktarin and it went within 24 hours. I was so strict with dummies too, as soon as it came out of her mouth it wasn't used again until it was sterilised. Sadly rubbing it round her mouth with my finger didn't work either
Yeah my baby done a course and it didn’t help. Looks like I have to call my gp and ask them for more drops x
@Phoebe hey lovely, what daktarin did you use for him?
@Hannah the oral gel x
We were prescribed miconazole gel but no chemist has got it so no other medication is available so she's got to see a paediatrician x
Are you bf? My lg has oral thrush but I have it on my nipples and trying to get rid of it so it doesn’t ping pong is proving hard x
