Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 Hi - My son (4 yr, autism)was a 100% breastfed baby until 7 months of age. Both he and I had thrush (me of the nipples and he in his mouth) at a very young age - a few weeks. This was treated topically at the time with some cream. I noticed that his stools smelt a lot like yeast one day when I was passing a bread bakery... and the smell was so familiar! Is this the normal way for breast-fed babie's BM to smell or was that an early indication of the chronic yeast problem I'm now treating?? I'd been told that his BMs would not smell 'bad' because he was breast feeding so I never thought about it as an indictor of yeast issues... 'cause baked bread smells kind of good...but perhaps it was!? Now I give him probiotics as the main yeast treatment. Is there anythig else I can do? Eliminating sugar is not an option! TIA! _______________________________________________ No banners. No pop-ups. No kidding.
