re: breasts itching...

Quoting MommytoKenz,Lily,&Harlow:“ Do you want to quit or is it because of the trush? Because if it's left untreated it will get worse ... [snip!] ... baby. Nystatin for baby and meds for you. Gentian violet works 90% of the time in 72 hours. Its purple and stains but worth it.”

oh i know it still needs to be treated. i am calling in the morning to be seen. easier to get in on base then try to load up the kids to drive the hour and a half into town and back to find the gentian violet stuff.

and the thrush is just the straw that broke the camels back.

Diflucan for 21 days is what worked for us. I felt better 90% by day 3, and by the 5th day 100% but still continued it to make sure it was gone. We havent had a single issue since. I was there. I didnt think it could ever get better. It was awful. Id cry when it was time to feed her. I hated it. Now its a cakewalk. She eats. I dont notice. I go about business regardless of where we are. I have two small toddlers who are 3.5 and 2.5 and it just works for us. good luck.
