Thrush in the mouth

[melzie]

Does thrush in the mouth only happen to breasfed babys or can bottle fed babys get it to?

think all babies can get it as it happens in moist damp areas....my son who was bf had it and then we passed it from nipple to mouth for about a month between us!! what a right pair we were for that month!! haha!!

Thanks again glaskham, it sounds like you had a difficult time! It makes me realise how lucky I was (am). My ten month old boy has been so easy, I keep thinking it is sure to change anytime soon! People keep saying the next one will probably be a nightmare, Im hoping not! x

haha- my son was an angel till he started getting to two, he's still the devil-child now!! hoping once he hits 3 it'll stop but knowing my luck it wont!!....then my daughter was a nightmare for the first 10-12mths and now she is as perfect as ever- you'd never imagine how bad a baby she was for me!!! but then with her bf i had not one single problem in the 12mths, but my son and i had nothing but problems!!! just count yourself lucky you have got a good one still.....just make sure you make the most of it for when/if it changes!!!
