Tingling boobs? Thrush?

My boobs have started tingling all the time. Could this be a first sign of thrush? I've also got a deep ache behind my boobs, but not really burning pain and no white patches on either of us that I've seen.

I had my DD by CS 4 weeks ago and am now on antibiotics again because the wound isn't healing great. DD's tummy is upset, as is mine. I've started taking probiotics but am struggling to find times to take them apart from the antibiotics as the antibiotics are 4x a day.

It's been a real struggle to continue bfing with DD in SCBU at first and then having major issues with feeding. We've only just stopped doing all top-ups and now I'm really worried we'll get thrush. It's been painful enough already because of all the latch issues. I'm determined to bf, but am scared that it's going to get really painful. What can I do?

It does sound like it. Prob caused by antibiotics. Haven,t had it so don,t know about treatment but speak to gp.
Can sympathize with feeding struggle though, had this with ds2 who was low birth weight and couldn't,t latch. Exhausting. Good luck and hope things improve.
