She said, just a 1 or 2. OK, so I said I'll come over the next day and see how she is. Interestingly the pain settled completely over a couple of days with no treatment. There were no obvious signs of thrush in the baby, but I'm sure all the antibiotics had lead to oral thrush in the baby and then nipple/breast thrush in my friend. >> I wonder if this had to do with the mom's immune system being healthy, the thrush beginning in the baby, and the reaction she got being mild, not able to really take hold in her, and so it was able to clear on its own?
