For thrush or a white coating on the tongue:

Go to a Natural Food store and buy ground Fennel seed (Much cheaper than a grocery store).

My daughter use to get thrush all the time as a baby; a Dr. recommended this:

*Use 1 tbs of ground fennel in a coffee maker.
*Use one cup of water.

*Put it in a bottle warm or cold doesn't matter.

Should clear the babies tongue in a couple of days. I used this the entire time my daughter was drinking formula.

I used Fennel Powder in warm water to clear up my baby's thrush (a white coating on the tongue). A German Woman told me about it. It was amazing. In a day or two it was all clear. You can us it imbetween baby's formula. From 2 weeks and older. It is so cheap too! Go to any health food store and buy as much as you like! Use a coffee maker, put in about 1/2 c. fennel to 12 serv. of water. Add less water if you find it isn't strong enough.
