Dear Lyla,
Star here, (hi) you might already know this but LLL has an excellent series
booklet called Candidiasis and Breastfeeding available which includes a
mamagement flow chart. I find this very useful.I do think that it is
important to individualize your care, such that what you are counselling
for one mom/baby may not be the best or same info for the next mom/baby as
each situation will be unique. The art and science of lactation.
Hope you're doing well,
Warmth,
