Talked to doctor and was prescribed diflucan (had 2 doses, 7 days apart) which didn't clear up infection. Now using otc monistat 7 for yeast infection, but itching is unbearable. Vagisil helps for brief few hours but the itching is constant all day and night. I started eating yogurt and taking a Culturelle pill daily. Does anyone have any suggestions/medications/remedies to help alleviate the itching until the infection is gone?
The light bulb has finally come on that I've had a yeast infection almost...

Ok, I feel silly for writing this but I need help. I have a 10.5 month old who was exclusively breastfed until about a week ago when he decided he wanted to finally eat big boy food i.e. whatever we were eating. So he cut down to 3-4 times a day nursing but then he would be up every hour at night to nurse and would scream if I tried to get him back to sleep without nursing. My schedule does not allow for much sleep, so I just fed him (we co-sleep). I am thinking it was a growth spurt, but with 8 teeth and his squirmy nature, I became...

Hello ladies: I have a 61/2 mos old boy and I'm very concern. He has developed a terrible rash, on his little butt that at this point I'm not sure what it could be. It looks like he sat on a hot plate and got a serious burn. It mildly started about 2 mos ago and I took him to the pediatrician and she said to use hydrocortisone and if it continued she thought I would eventually either have to get a hypoallergenic diaper or use cloth diapers. I originally had some diaper changes and finally decided to go back to what he has been using since...

Does anyone have any good diaper rash remedies? I've tried the over the counter creams, letting her be without a diaper, longer bath time. It doesn't seem to be clearing up. It's also not getting too bad, but she's maintaining a rash. With my son I used his eczema cream & it cleared it up immediately. However, now that eczema cream has the warning "may cause cancer"...so we've stopped using it. Also on that note, does anyone have a home remedy for exzema. Thanks

My son who is 15 months old has had the flu for about 4 or 5 days now and has awful and I mean really awful diaper rash from all the diarrea he has had. What can I do to help clear it up and make it less painful. I am using just a spray bottle of warm water and paper towels to clean his bottom & was putting on generic Desitin but that doesn't seem to be helping. Any advice would be appreciate as we are both miserable and the doctor can't see us until next week.

My eight month old has severe constipation. For the past 4 days has been pooping rabbit pellets. In fact last night he pooped and when i changed him, his bottom was so raw that his little cheeks were bleeding. I have tried juice, change of diet, and nothing has worked. Has anyone ever used a probiotic and prebiotic on their infants? I am looking for anything that would work. I do not want to do medication. I want to stay natural. I also do not want to go to the doctor unless I absolutely have to. We do not have insurance. I would love...

My son just turned one this month. He's awesome, walking and chatting away. However, we are going on 4 days of diarrhea. My poor kid. It started Saturday and shows no signs of letting up. I called his Ped. but since he does not have a fever, is not vomiting, and still has an appatite they said there is really nothing they can do it just has to run it coarse. I don't know what's causing it. Maybe he picked up a bacteria, maybe he's got some back teeth coming in, I dont' know. I've got him on a very bland diet and keeping him hydrated...

My son is 20 months old and I think he might have athlete's foot. He has been scratching the bottom of his foot and there is cracking skin between his toes. I thought his shoes were pinching so he's wearing shoes with more room now. I've applied neosporin and its not helping. I've also tried cortizone cream. I've never seen athlete's foot. Can anyone tell me if that might be it? Is there a safe treatment for his age? I can tell he's uncomfortable but he can't tell me. Any help is appreciated! Thanks.

Hi there, I'm not the most organized mommy when it comes to having toiletries for my kids. I have a 1 year old and 3 year old...so what do you think I should have at all times....more than once I've run out of silly things like body wash, shampoo, etc...do you buy doubles of things? I know this might seem like a silly post but if someone gives me a good list, I'll actually go out and buy everything..really, I will! :) Thanks.

My 2 1/2 year old has a "diaper rash" that is not really a diaper rash. It is like severe acne, and it is only on the cheeks, not in the folds or anywhere else. She first got it at the beginning of the year, pediatrician said it was infected and gave us Omnicef (antibiotic) to help clear it up. This worked like a charm, but a month later, the "rash" was back. This time, a different pediatrician said that what she has is eczema, NOT an infection. He prescribed a steroid ointment. We used it for more than a week, making extremely slow...

Has anyone struggled with thrush not clearing up? I am breastfeeding and have been treating thrush for myself and my son for 2 weeks with Nystatin (him) and Lotrimin (me). Unfortunately, at the doctor today I found out that he still has thrush. Now he has a prescription for Diflucan. I am checking with my doctor to see if I should continue with Lotrimin or if she will recommend something else. I am hoping this will knock it out. However, I am getting really paranoid about where thrush is lurking! I know I need to boil my breast pump...
