Hi everyone. My baby is 3 weeks old on wednesday and br___t feeding has been a nightmare for me. At first I got a cracked and bleeding nipple and now I have a yeast infection on the nipples and she has thrush. Anyone know how to ease the pain of yeasty nipples?

get cream for you and gel for her, keep warm and let them air, its evil thrush, look up "nipple vasospasm" on google if the pain continues as i self diagnosed and am taking nifedopine, you can take ibuprofen as my doc prescibed them

Try to get a hold of Dr. Newmans all purpose nipple cream from your pharmacist. There is also a regimin of natural supplements (garlic, acidophilis, grapefruit seed extract) for curing yeast. I just did this and it seems to have worked. I think all of this info can be found on www.kellymom.com. There is a ton of info about thrush there. Go to b___stfeeding > common b___stfeeding concerns > thrush. Good luck!
