Oral thrush - 22 wks pregnant

[vicnsling]

Hello, has anyone else had thrush during their pregnancy? This is my 3rd and i didnt have it with my previous 2. My tongue is really sore! Doc reckons its due to hormones and being run down. Just wanted to see if anyone else had it and how long it took to clear up once they had got treatment from docs.

Thanks xx

Some medications can cause oral thrush or yeast infection (vaginal) I'm taking an antibiotic for a UTI and one of the side effects can be oral thrush or a vaginal yeast infection, yikes! My son had it when he was about a month old and it was terrible, hopefully you start feeling better soon!

Ive never had thrush,but one of my kids had it. It took 3or4 days after treatment before it went away but the meds they give her took care of the discomfort almost immediately.
