I'm feeling a bit better today so maybe, hopefully, it's not thrush. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thrush-or-bad-latch-from-teething#post-2657833 Mon, 28 Nov 2016 09:57:18 +0000 kiddosc 2657833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It could definitely be teething. A just got her second tooth, and both times they came in I suffered through about a week of intense nipple pain because of her wonky latch. I thought maybe thrush the first time it happened and was about to make an appt to have them looked at, but it started feeling better so i waited it out a few days and the pain went away. Same thing happened when the next tooth came, so I'm convinced it's teething. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thrush-or-bad-latch-from-teething#post-2657771 Mon, 28 Nov 2016 08:10:55 +0000 twodoghouse 2657771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get terrible pain and nipple blisters which lead to clogged ducts when my kids are teething. Their latches get a little shallow, but otherwise it's nothing noticeable from the outside. But something changes to cause considerable damage to my nipples! 😳 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thrush-or-bad-latch-from-teething#post-2657724 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 23:14:17 +0000 iluvboba637 2657724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Iced Tea: will try the coconut oil. It's weird be nursing isn't painful. Did your LO get it too? I'm more worried about LO getting it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thrush-or-bad-latch-from-teething#post-2657698 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 21:01:02 +0000 Iced Tea 2657698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My thrush went undiagnosed for over a month because I was missing those more obvious signs. The most painful moment was during and after showering. So yeah, I think you could have it. Mine got really bad because it was untreated so long. It took a month of diflucan and then the addition of coconut oil to get rid of it. Now when I feel it coming back, though, I start applying the coconut oil right away and it shuts it down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thrush-or-bad-latch-from-teething#post-2657607 Sun, 27 Nov 2016 14:41:18 +0000 iluvboba637 2657607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Starting yesterday my left nipple has been so tender when picking up Dd or drying off after a shower or pumping.<br /> No white spots, rash, flaking, or burning though. And the right side is just a bit sore but not as bad as the left.<br /> Idk if I'm just overreacting. Dd has been so fussy from either teething or sleep regression but strangely only wants boobs and screams when offered a bottle which she used to take fine. I couldn't find white patches in her mouth. She just sprouted her first tooth and I believe the second is likely to cut through soon. </p> <p>Could my nipple pain just be from a bad latch or do you girls think it's thrush? </p> <p>Do babies have a bad latch from teething? </p>
