Hi Jaye,
When I had a yeast infection years ago, the only thing that worked was 
gentian 1%.  I used it mostly on my nipples, and used it very "sparingly" in 
Ricky's mouth.  He never got any ulcers, and I finally got rid of the yeasties. I 
tried,
1. nystatin (didn't touch it)
2. probiotics even opened up the capsules and poured in bra.  I was sooooo 
itchy.
No one offered me diflucan that I can remember.  Other that purple nipples for 
a week or so, and a kid with a purple mouth there were no problems.
I have moms paint it on their breasts, then put the baby on.  If it is gonna 
work, you usually have immediate relief.  If you see spots in baby's mouth I 
would just "dot" the solution on it.

Best,
robin
