Default Thrush?

Does anyone know what thrush on a baby looks like? I really think Cole has it.

So here's the whole story:

I brought Cole to the doctor yesterday for his 2 month checkup, which timing wise was perfect becuase he got super congested, was fussy and couldn't eat the night before. On top of that I noticed a white spot on the middle of his tongue. I wasn't really sure if the spot was from milk or something else.

At the doctor's appointment come to find out he has a double ear infection! My poor baby!! I had the doctor look at his tongue, too which now had 3 spots. The doctor said he didn't think it was thrush because it wasn't anywhere else in his mouth...but now this morning there are even more spots!

I want to call the doctor back, and I think I will, but do you think I'm being crazy?

What does thrush look like? All I can find are pictures of adults that have serious cases of it. Braiden never had it so I'm clueless!
