My sons tongue also looked like this and they told me that if it isn't on the tip of the tongue, it's probably milk/formula.

Looks like it. Is baby breast fed or formula?

Definitely thrush then! My babe and I both got it but easy to treat! Make sure you get treatment too. Nipples can get so sore with it

It's definitely thrush, my lil girl has had thrush on and off for a few weeks as I'm breastfeeding and my treatment failed. I've developed ductal thrush ( ouch! ) and have now been prescribed anti fungal tablets. If you're breastfeeding then you both need treatment at the same time x

Definitely thrush. Same thing happened to me when my baby was a little over a month. Took her in and they gave me nystatin to give to her 4 times a day. And if you're breast feeding make sure you put some of the nystatin on your nipples.

it did get a little worse but then cleared up. i ended up having to have her on it for over a month because it just wouldn't go away. and I'm pretty sure the medicine upset her stomach for the first week. she was up crying all night.

I'll call again tomorrow! When you started the medicine with your lo did it get a smidge worse before it got better? I read that may happen.

that's odd. i got a decent size bottle and a refill when my baby got thrush. it was just for just in case i needed it.

Yes it looks like thrush !! My daughter had it and the Nystatin suspension really helped.

Yes that's thrush. Contact your pedi and sterilize all of the baby's bottles and pacifiers if you use them.

My baby has something similar. I thought it was thrush too and she said it was residue. Does it smell at all?

I don't think it's smelly. His breath smells sweet.
