Goodbye Thrush!

After dealing with Thrush for 3 1/2 weeks, we finally kicked it last Friday. I did Gentian Violet for 6 days, and it cleared up Owen's Thrush, but mine was still lingering. So I moved on to Eliza's suggestions--Garlic and a Yeast Cleanse (consisting of things like black walnut). I started that on Wednesday, and by Friday my Thrush was completely gone. And with the healing of that, Owen picked back up nursing great. No more screaming from him when it was time to eat. In fact, he nursed for 4 straight hours on Friday morning. It was great! Of course I didn't get anything else accomplished that day, but that's ok. I am so happy that I get to enjoy nursing him for a while longer!
