Mine were only itchy when I had it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itchy-nipples#post-1580221 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 08:38:35 +0000 avivoca 1580221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say it's thrush. We got it at ten days old and at one month old. A vinegar/water solution on your nipples will help, and my midwife gave me a prescription for diflucan. You will probably need to treat LO too so you don't pass it back and forth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/itchy-nipples#post-1580204 Mon, 21 Apr 2014 08:33:56 +0000 LovelyPlum 1580204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If my nipples are itchy, is it automatically thrush? I've been on antibiotics for 10 days because of strep, and I've been super worried about catching it. But I've also been taking probiotics and letting my nipples air-dry between feedings, or as much as I can with them leaking everywhere. They're not really shiny, but they are red. Thoughts? LO is 11 days old, and I really hope that's not what we're dealing with... </p>
