Newborn with white coated tongue - just milk?

[Bumperlicious]

DD2 is 5 weeks and seems to constantly have a white coated tongue. is this just milk?

Could be thrush. Without seeing it I couldn't pass comment really. I would take her to the docs :)

Sounds like it maybe thrush. My HV kept telling me that DS just had a "milky tongue". He eventually ended up having awful thrush nappy rash and was in real discomfort . It cleared up pretty quickly though with the right stuff.

Oh dear, hope its not as has been like it for a while :(. i just assumed it was milk.

Just did a bit of googling which said to rub it and if it come away its just milk. currently n the boob but will check when she comes off.
