Where did you get your Gentian Violet? I am thinking I need to go that route as the anti fungals aren't doing the trick. TIA! Katie

Hi Katie! I got mine at the lactation shop at Providence Hospital in Everett, where I had Max...but I only used a little bit, it doesn't take much each time and you only have to do it 3-4 days...if you would like I'd be happy to mail it to you (I know I saved it, I just have to remember where I put it Smile ), though I know you might want to get it asap. They might have it someplace like Super Supplements or a health foods type store, if you have something like that near you. Anyway, if you'd like me to drop it in the mail tomorrow, you'd hopefully get it Saturday. You can email me your address: keriannemoore at gmail dot com.

Hope you feel better soon!

We are coming home from Eastern WA right now (yes I am bump'n in the car), so I will research it when I get home. I was wondering if they had it at a vitamin store so I could pick it up on our way home. If I cannot find it, I would love it if you cod send to me. Thank you so much. you are too sweet.

Jealous of you bump'in the car! Hope you had a great time in Eastern WA. Just let me know if you want me to send it. Remember to do your nipples and Max's mouth, and I think you also have to be kind of obsessive about sterilizing anything that goes in his mouth during treatment (bottle nipples, pacifiers, your breast shields, etc). It was a pain but it worked. The gentian violet itself didn't hurt me at all and didn't seem to faze Max...the only trick is since you have to kind of paint the inside of his mouth, it's easiest to do it when he's crying. Sad

Anyway, I hope you can find it at a vitamin store on the way home so you can start right away, but if not I'm happy to send it to you!
