Anyone else had thrush?

I think DS and I have thrush right now and I forgot to ask the nurse at the dr's office today if any milk I pump right now has to be thrown away? I'm going to call back and ask tomorrow but I thought I would check here too.

My nipples=OWCHIE!!!!

    Nope it doesn't have to be thrown away but it shouldn't be frozen and used for a later time. As long as it is used fresh/refrigerated its fine to give baby while you're being treated. My problem is (we have had thrush for 2 1/2wks), I don't know when its ok to start freezing the milk! =/

    I had ductal thrush and had to go on meds, but no one ever told me that I couldn't save my milk! I better check this out.

    Both of my girls had thrush, and as you can imagine the three of us passed it back and forth in a horrible cycle. The nurses in the NICU told me what a pp said. You can use your milk now while the two of you are being treated, but you shouldn't freeze it and use it later because it could pop up again. 

    Good luck.
