This is just a stab in the dark, but if moms are predisposed to nipple
thrush when the skin is compromised, maybe the baby is predisposed to oral
thrush when the mouth tissues are compromised. I know my dd got pretty bad
thrush when she was cutting teeth and another LLL Leader commented that the
breaking of the gum tissue by the emerging tooth set her up for it.
