Breast or nipple thrush can be linked to a history of vaginal thrush, recent use of antibiotics or nipple damage. Breastfeeding presents itself as the perfect environment for thrush. Thrush thrives in warm, moist, sugary places, which is exactly what your baby’s mouth is like during breastfeeding. The thrush infection can then pass to your nipples. Thrush will easily happen if your nipples are already sore or cracked because your baby is nor latching on well. Unless thrush is treated, it can pass back and forth between you and your baby http://www.babycentre.co.uk/a8486/breastfeeding-and-thrush#ixzz416jKu7Oh.
