>Subject: Yeast & Sore Nipples followup
>
>On 2/28 I posted about a g2p2 who presented for the first time via phone 9
>days post-partum. Briefly, the scenario was:
> pp1= small crack on one nipple
> pp2= began expressing milk, pp3= vaginal itch and severe dryness of her
>mouth
> pp4= saw her ob who prescribed diflucan, pumped and fed baby expressed milk
>
> pp6= took diflucan once, did a "pump and dump" until PP8
> pp8 = put baby back to the breast
> pp9=nipple pain had increased, no vaginal itching, crack on nipple healed,
>baby had small white patches inside mouth. Mom's "seared" feeling inside of
>mouth persisted, has tight, dry-skin-like sensation which has traveled from
>PP3-9 from one ear, across chin, to other ear, externally.
> My thoughts: yeast? Shouldn't mom and baby both have been treated?
>Are
>they passing it back and forth? Why didn't she start diflucan as soon as it
>was prescribed? WHY didn't she call sooner?.....
>
> Here's a followup: Its now pp13. For the mom, the MD advised peroxide
>gargles, said external and internal facial "thing" was due to vitamin
>deficiency, did some bloodwork (exactly what, the mom didn't know). Baby
>still has white patches inside mouth and will finally be seen by pediatrician
>on March 3. Infant breastfeeds with no apparent discomfort to mom's nipples,
>and MD (who breastfed her own twins) advised applying vaseline to nipples
>after each feed. We discussed vaseline as being occlusive, and concern about
>possibility of thrush, and culturing. The MD, who saw only the mom, not the
>baby, feels it isn't thrush, so mom is "not concerned". Oh, my.....The saga
>continues....
> Sincere thanks to all of you who e-mailed me with your wonderful
thoughts and
>ideas. As a special note to Donna Z. (who was disappointed that I, and
>others, asked to be e-mailed separately)....I understand your concerns. I
>also wish the case histories would unfold on Lactnet so we could all learn
>from them. Speaking only for myself, I was eager to get some feedback asap,
>and knew I might not have the opportunity to read my digests for a few days.
>But I agree, its frustrating not to be able to see the outcomes of some cases!

>I am not defending the right of a school to tell a teacher she may not pump
>( I HATE THAT SORT OF THING and would fight it tooth and nail...)..
>
>BUT,...she may want to know that she can pump without a plug....by getting a
>battery adaptor...that she can rent where she got the pump. If not, have her
>call Medela directly at 1800 TELL YOU for a place to get this valuable piece
>of equipment.

>In the meanwhile, hope Liz helps you. We find that people listen when you
>are sooooo nice and reasonable and full of information to educate .....THOSE
