Take baby to doctor or no?

Question

I think my son has thrush, he is 3 weeks old. I’ve never dealt with this so I’m not sure where to go from here. People make it seem super common and unproblematic. Should I take him to the doctor or is this something that typically goes way on it’s own?

Answer

Doctors for sure. Won’t need antibiotics as it’s not a bacterial infection. But will most likely need an anti fungal medication. Are you breastfeeding? If so, you will likely need to be treated as well.

Answer

I'd take him to the doctors as they may need antibiotics.

Answer

Thrush normally needs treatment. If you are breastfeeding and your baby gets diagnosed with thrush call your provider as well. You will need to be treated so you don’t keep passing it back and forth.

Answer

Take him to the doctors, my daughter had thrush and they gave her this yellow liquid which didn't work but then they gave me this gel stuff which cleared it all up
