I'm tandem feeding my 3-month-old and 2-year-old. But I think my infant has oral thrush. Will my toddler get oral thrush if they nurse from the same breast?

Yes...your child can get it if they are taking feed from the same breast. Since, if is a yeast infection your other baby can get the infection as it will be left on your breast. There is gel that your doctor may prescribe tk be applied on your baby's mouth or if may dissappear on its own. Make sure you do not feed both babies from same side. Rest please consult the PD.
