White toungue ?

Question

Does anybody else's baby's toungue gets white asf ? How do you clean it?

Answer

It’s just milk tongue if not accompanied by white spots etc so best to leave it as doesn’t causes harm. More likely to cause harm using wash cloth and unsterilised water like some of the suggestions on here as it doesn’t need to be “cleaned off”

Answer

It’s good practice to wipe their gums and tongue twice a day with a wet wash cloth. Prepares them for teeth brushing and helps to keep thrush away and other bacteria

Answer

My ped told me not to clean it . That it's good for babbies.

Answer

It’s fine and no you don’t need to do anything. As soon as their diet changes it’ll go away.

Answer

Our pediatrician said no need to clean inside the mouth 🤷🏻‍♀️ my baby’s toungue also gets very white

Answer

It’s normal milk tongue. Just watch out for signs of thrush as it is very painful for baby.

Answer

Mine does from milk/ spitting up. It looks a little strange, but there’s no harm in it and the bang doesn’t care. I just leave it alone.

Answer

I was worried my little girl had thrush but the pediatrician said it was just from the milk and nothing to worry about. Didn’t think to ask about cleaning but now will at her next appointment. I have one of those banana shaped baby toothbrushes but didn’t think to use it until she is older.
