    Default Signs of Thrush??

    I have read on other posts that there is "white patches" on your nipples and/or your LO's mouth. I don't have either on me or my DS. I have noticed my nipples are pink compared to the areola (sp?). Is that normal? I don't have pain or anything. Just trying to figure out all the changes in my body and what is normal... and not normal.



    DS 12/13/07 nursed exclusively 15 mos!!

    with DD Due April '10 - Looking forward to and DS having a new playmate!

    Pink can indeed be normal... I'd think if you're not experiencing any other sign/symptoms, you're prbably safe...
