This is no longer recommended for treatment of yeast in baby's mouth due to
potential imbalance in baby causing abnormal alkalinity.  I have personally
had clients, several years ago, with yeast that persisted on for 6 wks plus
and really abused the sodium solution.  We have much better solutions today.
