I did a Google search on thrush and "mercury fillings."  I found lots of
websites that make this claim.

One that denies it

I'd be interested in seeing hard evidence.  What I'm seeing on these
websites seems to be mostly conjecture and anecdote.

I suppose a mother could get a blood test to see what her mercury levels
actually are.
