Have you tried kefir plant/grain, it is a kind of milk/yogart drink you make and it helps lots of problems such as thrush, crohns, IBS and many more, just an idea

where - mouth (if b/f youcould be reinfecting) or bottom (using washables or disposables)?

as cargirl said - mouth - could be being passed from you to babe and back again. Daktarin oral gel for your nipples is brilliant... gets rid of babe's thrush in mouth and stops you reinfecting.

bottom - nappy changes - cloth - give them a vinegar rinse or here in Aus can get a canestan rinse. Try using canestan cream on bottom or I use daktozin cream - thrush cream - but it need to be used for a period after the thrush clears up otherwise it can flare up again.
