My 5 mo. has thrush and he's on oral nystatin for it and I've got some Nystatin cream for his diaper changes and for me. It seems to be going away becaue the spot on me is clearing up some, but it's not gone entirely. In fact, I missed a few doses of oral Nystatin a few times, so perhaps it's back with vigor. Lack of sleep and chasing a 2.5 yo. around is making me so forgetful.
Anyhow, my 5 mo. is just not right. Restless, short naps (gone from 45's to 30's), hard to wind-down, won't even settle in the swing and is making a wierd noise with his mouth closed that is not really his mantra fussing. I'm wondering if the thrush is painful or uncomfortable for him. I know it is for me when he nurses. He's eating fine and is taking his cereal better the last few days.
Then again, he could be starting to teethe, and if he's like ds#1, it'll be a long, slow, painful process...for both of us!
SHould I get the GV stuff for his mouth as well?
Thanks!
