Hi All,
Have any of the persistant thrush cases tried white vinegar rinses as well as
all the other stuff?
I had a mom who also tried many creams and meds on her and baby and when she
started using a vinegar rinse it really seemed to help.
To make the mix you add just enough vinegar with water so you can just barely
smell the vinegar.  Mom and babe can soak in a bath of the mix to help cover
the whole body and get rid of any yeastie beasties that may be hanging around
in obscure places, also swabing the nips before and after BF, and giving baby
a washrag/cloth soaked (not dripping) in the mix to suck on helps get the
yeasties in babys mouth.
Just a thought!
Anyone know of any herbal yeast remedies that haven't really been discussed
at length here?
Jay
