I Have Been Using Nystatin for a Horrible Diaper Rash

Has anyone had any problems with the Nystatin? The dr said to use it 2-3 times a day. She has blister like red blemishes near her private. It's right along the diaper line.

Help for thrush........breastfeeding a 2 Week old........extreme Pain.

Hi Ladies, I am so grateful for this site. You always give me the best advice. I found out the source of my breastfeeding pain...........My poor son and I have thrush.
