Oh Sweetheart, I am so sorry to hear this :( Poor little mite, and poor you, it is awful dealing with a poorly LO. Between you and I, I have the same reaction to antibiotics right now, it happens to me every single time, they just upset the good/bad bacterial balance in your body but what choice do we have. Is there anything that can be done for a LO with a yeast infection  ??? I will investigate and let you know if I come up with anything. Maybe you could post on the health forum Sweetie.

Sending healthy vibes and lots of love your way.x.

Edited to add to the above.x.

Okay, in case you don't know the advise out there is:

Lay of the sugar, it helps yeast thrive.

Change nappies frequently, no powder of nappy cream.

Try and keep her out of nappies as much as possible to let the area breath.

Look into what her nappies are made of any maybe try for a more breatheable product.

The topical products recommended are Nystatin and liquid Mylanta. I have no previous experience of these so please take advise from your pharmacist or GP before using it, I'm no expert.

Thank you for the advice. Her pedi doctor has her using an ointment to help with the yeast infection.  Just feel sorry for the LO her sleep is sooooo messed up. For instance she had been awake for almost 3 hrs tomight. Killer on me since I am getting sick too
