What can be done for a baby that won't eat and has thrush?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat the thrush: Thrush can cause a stinging and burning in the mouth, so before the baby is going to eat, you need to treat the underlying fungal infection. See the baby's pediatrician for an anti-fungal medication to apply in the mouth.
