  the trademark symptom of thrush is shooting pains in your breast. your LO may or may not have white patches in his/her mouth.
  
  you can try some at-home remedies first, like a vinegar wash on your nipples (or a bath with a cupful of vinegar), eating lots of probiotic/fermented foods, taking a spoonful of apple cider vinegar each day, taking a probiotic supplement, avoiding sugar and refined carbohydrates. you can also use over-the-counter antifungal cream (miconazole), or coconut oil, which supposedly has antifungal properties, on your nipples.
  
  if symptoms continue, i'd see your care provider for a prescription for an oral antifungal medication.

  Hi, thrush symptoms are usually stabbing pain as soon as you latch and you can see white spots in the bay's mouth, don't wipe them i did and was worst, making my son pain worst and he didn't want to feed.

  Don't drink sugary drinks and you can try Silverette i used them for mastitis but my friend used it for thrush and said it cleared in 24 hours! good luck!
