One of our LC's received a call today from a mom who has persistant thrush.
I searched the archives and found Pat Gima's thrush plan, which we will give
a try!  The mom had two questions:

1. Does pumping and keeping the baby off the nipple for a few days help the
nipple to heal?  She is experiencing pain with nursing.

2. Would freezing the milk kill the yeast fungus?

Two good questions and I want to give as good an answer!! Thanks in advance!
