Thrush in Babies: Can Babies Get Candida?

It's amazing how the power of the internet has awoken so much interest in natural and alternative health. Actually, it's quite awesome really. With this awakening there's been a huge surge in awareness of the fact that chronic yeast problems can cause or worsen a myriad of health problems, including fatigue, autoimmune disorders, asthma, allergies, autism, ADD/ADHD, PMS, depression, and brain fog, to name a few.

So I have to say it's really surprising to me how little awareness there is of the fact that many yeast problems first originate as thrush in infants. I suppose because babies and toddlers can't communicate very well, there's just less realization that yeast can cause just as many problems in babies and toddler as it can in adults. In fact, many long term yeast/candida problems originated in infants or toddlers.

I'm hoping to raise awareness of this issues amongst moms so they'll be motivated to treat infant thrush/thrush in babies at the root. Cure it and keep it from coming back - for good. Babies deserve the best and they are dependent on us to keep them out of harm's way! Yeast can be an insidious problem, and it's not truly cured by toxic drugs or even many "natural" remedies - such as gentian violet, which I don't consider a safe choice for babies or adults with thrush. You can read my article about gentian violet by clicking here.

Thrush in Babies - What Really Works?

Is this your first time dealing with thrush? When my first baby got thrush, I was like, "Oh no!!!" I was already exhausted from recovering from a c-section on top of nightly wakings to breastfeed my baby. I'd already dealt with chronic yeast problems over the years, so I knew just how resilient yeast can be. I was really stressed out to see those yeast patches, in other words! I know many other moms also struggle with treating thrush in babies.

I researched extensively on the internet and was surprised to find that even midwives were recommending drugs. There was no way I was going to use anti-fungal drugs on my baby! I'd used them myself years before and ended up losing 20 pounds (down to about 117 pounds at 5'8"0, my period had stopped and my hair had starting fallen out. Somehow I was just not going to use anti-fungals on my precious newborn.

Other information said I needed to change my sheets and towels daily, sterilize my bras and the list went on. There was just no way I had the energy to do all that. I ended up experimenting with some natural remedies I found on the net. They kept the problem from getting worse, but didn't come close to curing it.

Finally, I used my own years of experience and knowledge of yeast (as well as some trial and error) and developed a program that worked amazingly well! I have to tell you, I was honestly amazed myself at how well it worked and so I decided to publish my own ebook, "The 3-Day Thrush Cure", which you can purchase at www.GetRidofThrush.com.

I've also written a more in-depth article, "Thrush in Babies: How to Cure Infant Thrush Naturally and Permanently."

Good luck to you and your baby!
