Even if it is thrush--I often see resistant cases resolve almost overnight once a posterior tongue-tie (PPTT) is clipped--check this first. 

Things I do not ever encourage--diflucan, nystatin and GV. "Watching diet" may not mean much--IMO, 100% sugar, simple carb and cow milk elimination (in all its forms) is needed. No yogurt, unless it is coconut milk yogurt. Probiotocs need to be taken by mom and baby for far longer than a week. I like 3-lac for mom if the candida is really resistant--a 3 month supply.

I have been using biotin b/c biotin deficiency allows the yeast form of candida to convert to the fungal form. Adult dosage is 1000mcg 3-4X per day.? Also, have mom use only coconut or olive oil for cooking and take EFAs (essential fatty acids) for gut healing. 

Do not purchase probiotics or any other supplement at department stores or such--get them at a health food store or order them on-line. A high fiber diet helps the body eliminate the toxic die-off from the candida. I suggest using flax or salba seeds ground and added to food.

Ultimately gut healing should then be addressed. 

Topically for healing, I use colloidal silver spray followed by coconut oil.
