Lisa Amir asks,
>do many people see unsettled / "colicky"  babies who improve when treated
for thrush?

Yup, and the improvement is often very quick. I suspect that not only are the
babies feeling better (even my dog gets grumpy when he has a bellyache), but
mom's nipples feel better and she's more willing to let the baby nurse as
long and often as desired. Having nursed through thrush, I know it's very,
very tempting to shave a bit off the length and stretch out the intervals
between breastfeedings!
