You don't mention what this mom's symptoms are but you might consider that it actually 
isn't yeast.  If she is having some of the common yeast-like complaints like burning, 
stabbing and pain in between feeds, this might be due to a bacterial infection.  Some 
researchers have been unable to find yeast living in the milk ducts but have found women 
to be colonized with bacteria who respond to antibiotic treatment.

Good Luck
