Yes, their moms get plenty of IV abx prior to or during delivery so bottle
fed babies get thrush. Plus bottle fed babies get more abx than BF babies,
in general, so thrush is always lurking there to get the upper hand in
baby's system. Improper or lack of handwashing is another way to give
thrush to a baby.
