Yael I hear you on the thrush! We used daktarin gel, which cleared up Milo's oral thrush in just over a week. It did give him the runs though, and as it was during the 2 weeks of really hot weather we had in Melb, I stopped the treatment for him early. Didn't want him dehydrating.

My nipple thrush was more severe though, and I ended up 2 treatments of 3x diflucan (1 each day) followed by nilstat tablets.

I had these prescribed at the royal womens. Much cheaper to get it at the hospital pharmacy than at a regular chemist (about 1/3 of the price)

In the end, the prescribed gentian violet, which I didn't use as I thought it was clearing up well. I'm still not sure if its totally gone, but I think so, as I hardly ever get the pain now, and its more itchy between feeds.
