My daughter told me that the Baltimore health department sends a nurse to all new moms homes and weighs the baby and told her that she needs to clean her breastfed baby's mouth out with a wet wash cloth after he breastfeeds a few times a day to prevent thrush.......
Neither my daughter nor my grandson have thrush.... yeast infection prevention with a wet washcloth?
Anyone know anything about this?
Anyone reading this from Baltimore?
Thank you
