Hiya moms! My kids recently has a stomach virus. Though mild with intermitant vomiting and diarrhea it had a much longer elapsing then your typical bug. With 3 kids it'due south taken a long time to get through this. My youngest was ill vi days, and middle child 4 days and my oldest only 24 hours. My centre child has been healthy for 5 days and then began with symptoms again the other dark. I've never had this happen before, usually when they get it they do non get it over again. He was also the terminal kid to get well earlier becoming ill again. Has anyone e'er experienced this happening? Thanks!!!

Yes. Totally sucks!! The strain we take experienced this twelvemonth was insane. My 8 yr old threw upwardly for 16 hours directly. That was unheard of in our family. Breadbasket bugs would usually exist about 3-5 hours of vomitting, then taper off and the diarrhea may or may not brand an appearance. The only reason I didn't have her into an urgent care, was because a friend has said her son had thrown upwards for 12 hours directly. Our unproblematic school primary said his own kindergartener got it 4 times!!!! She would get better and within a week or two, had it over again. Poor girl!!
Later my daughter got sick, likewise as my toddler, I researched a sanitizer my SIL told me about. She's a nurse in California, and some of the hospitals use information technology. It's chosen Prefenz. Information technology'southward a botanical sanitizer that claims to remain on your easily through x washings (and perchance more than). I ordered it, cuz I was scared the whole family would get the bug and just keep passing it effectually! I can't say that nosotros all didn't get ill considering of the sanitizer, only only the two girls got it. I try to put it on my kids easily each morning time. I do forget. I had also tried to get the kids to wash their hands every bit soon as they walk in the door from school, but that was even harder to call back! We've had a pretty healthy late wintertime/early bound....so far. I probably just jinxed myself!!! LOL!! I would endeavour to be super consistent with hand washing and endeavour to keep the kiddos away from each other when they are sick. I know that'due south hard - for sure. I besides went through the house and washed down the doorknobs, remotes, handles, etc. I'yard so deplorable you lot guys are going through this. Hopefully, information technology will all be over soon!!!!!

Yes... simply recently. My child had it ( vomiting and diarrhea) for four days (although only in the middle of the night) then fine for iii days, then sick again for two day, skipped a day. Lasted over a 14 day period in all on and off.
Doctor said that the virus can take that long to go out the arrangement. Also that trunk can exist weakened and stomach more than sensitive afterwards.
Still seemed then odd that I wondered if in that location was some environmental factor. Did change the little screens (aerators) on the spout of my kids faucets (in that location was some debris at that place -- don't know if it contributed).
Attempt some kids' Culturelle (probiotic) -- haven't found a physician who didn't recommend information technology. Helps restore all the natural flora/fauna especially if they've taken whatever antibiotics. Skillful luck!

Yeah, this happened to me actually. I thought information technology was just a breadbasket virus, it went away and came back. After 3 weeks, which the doc told me information technology could take that long for a tum virus to completely get away, I went to the doctor and was tested and it turned out I had a bacterial infection. I was put on antibiotics and all was fine then.

My two yr one-time merely got over the stomach virus a couple of weeks ago. He wad diarrhea and airsickness. Then, on mean solar day 4, information technology appeared he was all better. I was then happy. Then on mean solar day five, he started vomiting again. On day six, he went back to normal over again and has been better ever since. Brand certain yous change his toothbrush, wash bed sheets and clothes. Stomach bugs that are caused by a bacteria often need antibiotics but a tummy virus of a particular strain can simply be caught in one case unless the virus mutates, which takes lots of time. (kinda like the common cold).

It's also hither on the Cardinal Coast of Ca. My eight year onetime who is never sick has had the worst stomach cramps, crying and miserable for 5 days so far hoping for a intermission presently. She has lost almost seven lbs eating microscopic amounts of brown rice etc... With Drs. approval I gave her some Immodium for kids and that e'er so slightly firmed upward her stool. Hate to see the hurting she's in heating pad and baths merely help for a bit. Fever is gone and airsickness seems at bay. Now just cramps and diarrhea. Thank for the posts, it helps to know she's non the only i.
