Oral thrush?

Question

Anyone have oral thrush during pregnancy? I'm 100% sure I have it right now, going to the doctor tomorrow. How do they treat that? Everything I read says most antifungals during pregnancy are iffy, aside from the creams you'd use for vaginal yeast.

Answer

I have it and it keeps coming and going. It sucks. I find that dabbing lemon juice on my tongue a few times a day, swishing with salt water and then oil pulling with coconut oil helps. I’ve had it since 15 weeks (on and off) and I’m 34 now. Also brushing your teeth and scraping your tongue helps too.

Answer

Ask doctor about this. When my daughter had thrush, the antibiotics did not help at all. Doc finally admitted this works but a lot of parents dont like it bc it stains your mouth,skin, and clothes if you get it on yourself. I didnt care about stains. It worked amazing. 3x a day for 3 days and it was gone. Just took a qtip and rubbed the infected spots.

Answer

Nystatin is how they treat it. It’s a swish and swallow.

Answer

My husband got this from one of his inhalers, the treatment is a mouthwash you should be fine.
