dd3 has a white tongue.

[misdee]

and my nipples itch.

Sounds like it could be thrush.

thats what i thought. can i treat over the counter or see gp?

You may have to see your GP first.

Saying that, you could try the chemist first & see if they can prescribe you something over the counter.

I'll go to the GP first...and also few babies have white tongue...like milky...

sometimes...they clean it off....

when my dd had thrush in her mouth it was very thick almost yellowy

when dd and I had thrush her tongue was white but it was lumpy like cottage cheese. I did take her to the GP and they gave her some drops. The GP suggested I get some daktarin oral gel and put it on my nipples after each feed to stop reinfection. It really did work quite quickly BUT then I think we had a good dose as she was unsettled and it was tow curling agony to feed her.

hope that helps.
