This is my second bout of thrush the first cleared within a few days with treatment and I fed through it but this time I can't seem to shake it and the pain is far worse.

My nipples are a mess and I have been unable to feed for days and even expressing is becoming too painful. There has been no improvement in the last seven days on:

Daktarin gel
Fluconazole
Airing where possible
Regular disposable pad changes
Hot washing all clothes
Cut out sugar including carbs

So worried that I will not be able to get back to breast feeding the longer this goes on. What else can I do?

Have you called one of the helplines or been to a Bfing Support Group? Maybe they can talk to you about resuming bfing and have some suggestions for clearing it up. Smile
