It is possible that baby's digestive system never recolonized wth the
good bacteria after the first yeast infection.  If mom has not been
careful with hygeine, baby may have come into contact again.  And, yes,
it is entirely possible that the baby is just sensitive to yeast, and
got it again from the exposure to the antiboitic in the mom's
breastmilk.  I have seen this before too.

Both mom and baby might benefit from acidophilis/bifidis fom a good
health food store.  Most pediatricians can recommend a dosage for baby,
and mom can follow directions from her doctor.

Also, when I struggled with yeast, I was consulting with Ruth Lawrence.
She ahd suggested that both baby and I be treated for two weeks past the
last traces of yeast, to assure that it was indeed gone.
