Lucas has been taking Nystatin for a week to clear his thrush, but it hasn't improved his tongue at all, and in fact, the yeast in his poop has caused a bad diaper rash that we got prescribed ointment for. That rash has not improved either, so at the advice of another mother and many articles online, I bought some gentian violet over the counter medicine. It kills the yeast within 4 days, but it stains clothing, and skin for a few days.
Lucas didn't mind taking it, or the nystatin (which I am still giving him) but when we layed him down to change him he peed up, and into his mouth!!! Call it our 'homeopathic' treatment day. Let's hope one of the above medicines clears this up for good! He's such a good baby- such a champ!!

Cute! I heard that stuff works also! Good luck!
This is the first I've heard of that stuff. Man does he look funny! Can't take him in public like that, huh?
G bought that stuff because baby needed it for his belly button. It was falling off with a little bit of blood The day after he bought it, it fell off completely and it was fine.
Well my brother sure did accidentally drop the bottle in our bathroom. It exploded. He was able to clean it right away but our toilet is white and purple.
Poor baby Lucas. Look at him, he smiles. Awww he's so cute <3
