Has this mother and baby been cultured to be sure it's actually thrush
they're experiencing? Yeast gets blamed for much of the breast/nipple pain,
especially when mom feels a burning pain. It could be bacterial, or some other kind
of skin problem. After mom's been treated with nystatin, g. violet, Diflucan
etc. I'm thinking it is unlikely to be thrush. I'd strongly encourage
culturing to determine exactly what is causing this pain. Susan Manore, IBCLC
