Mastitis and thrush prevention, need advice

[tarahsolazy]

So, my DS is 12 days old now, and I thought my BF problems were over for awhile, he was latching great, eating lots. I was leaking lots of milk all over, all was good. Then, I developed a fever and shaking chills, and a sore R breast. Probably not incidentally, that breast has a healing damaged nipple. (Its my DS's favorite boob, LOL). So, now I'm on antibiotics, and really want to avoid thrush. I don't have a real history of yeast infections. I bought some refrigerated Acidophilus at Wild Oats today, how much should I take? I think its like 2million organisms per capsule.

I take one pill twice a day until I am off antibiotics/DD is off antibiotics/the thrush clears up - whichever scenario applies. Then I take one pill a day until the bottle is gone.
JMO and I am not a doctor!
