A. Hi Mom, It is a oral thrush. It is caused due to drinking milk. It is common in new born babies. Nothing to worry. You can clean your baby's mouth by following these steps. Dip a gauze - or cloth covered finger into warm water. Gently open your baby's mouth, and then ligthly rub their tongue in a circular motion using the cloth or gauze. Softly rub your finger over your baby's gums and on the inside of their cheeks, too.
