It is important to consult a doctor if you suspect that your 6-week-old baby has thrush on their tongue. Thrush is common in young babies, especially if they are breastfed. Treatment is necessary to prevent it from worsening and affecting the baby's feeding. A prescription medication is usually the most effective option. The doctor may also prescribe a cream to treat the nipples to prevent the fungus from spreading between the baby and the mother.
