no. what your baby has is the same thing as a vaginal infection. the thrush is cured by nystatin oral solution, and have your doctor prescribe some nystatin cream for the bottom area. if you are nursing, keep you nipples clean , espescially before nursing. if you bottle feed, sterilize the nipples, bottles and any thing else used in feeding your baby. do not use the same nipple set up twice.

If you have thrush is it unsafe to breastfeed?
The short answer is no. I guess it would depend on circumstances though. Normally in nursing couples if one party has thrush, so does the other (even if they are asymptomatic). So if you have thrush (in the nipples for example) it is very likely that your baby has it also. Thrush is fairly easy to diagnose if (a) your baby has white or pearly patches in the mouth that do not easily rub away (like milk residue) (b) baby is fussy or gassy or continually pulling off while nursing (c) has persistent (possible raised) painful-looking red diaper rash that does not respond to diaper rash creams. For you your nipples may be redder than normal or bright pink, sometimes scaly, puffy, weepy or blistered, and breastfeeding might be moderately uncomfortable to excruciatingly painful. Lancing pain that runs deep in the breast may indicate thrush is in the milk ducts as well as on the surface of the nipple.If you are prescribed medication check with the doctor that it is safe for you to continue nursing. Nystatin drops will often be prescribed for baby to take orally for thrush (and it can be administered topically to the nipples) although I've been reading some debate about its effectiveness (see for example Kellymom's website on thrush resources http://www.kellymom.com/bf/concerns/thrush/thrush-resources.html). It worked fine for me. Pam Gima's yeast treatment plan (also detailed on the Kelly Mom site) also gives suggestions for boosting the immune system and your friendly intestinal flora through diet and garlic and acidophilus supplements.Both you and baby may have problems nursing with a thrush infection, because baby's painful mouth will tend to have her pull off before she is full, and your painful nipples will want the same! Try to keep nursing - there is some
