17. Thrush and Breastfeeding with Melissa of @Pharmomacist
This week we are bringing Melissa from @pharmomacist back on the show. If you haven’t already, be sure to go back and listen to episode 7 where her and I talk about medications for mom. Today we are talking about thrush. We cover everything from the risk factors, to treatment options, to how it affects pumping moms.
Thrush can oftentimes be misdiagnosed and mistreated. Melissa shares what signs and symptoms you should be looking for if you think you might have thrush. She also talks about how to differentiate between thrush or if baby just has a poor latch. We even cover what the best treatment options are and why it is so important to treat mom and baby at the same time.
This episode is so insightful. I can honestly say I learned so much from it. I’ve never had thrush but Melissa not only brings her personal experience of having it twice but also her professional lens as a pharmacist. We hope this episode helps you rule out whether or not what you're going through is thrush and how to best handle it if it is.
