We have a stomach bug

sara1817 · February 2010

I've had a stomach flu for the last 4 days. Just as I start feeling better and think that we were pretty lucky for no one else to get sick, Dh and Dd both got sick last night. I spent the whole night night holding my Dd while she vomited and cleaning explosive diapers. I feel so horrible for her! All she's been able to keep down this morning has been a little bit of water. I'm calling the pedi when the office opens this morning. Just curious what other moms are doing for the their sick LOs.

Mine only lasted for about 12 hours, but DS is on day 5 of explosive diapers and random vomiting. We're working off the BRAT diet and trying to keep him on as many liquids as possible. GL.

That's no fun :-( Hope everyone is feeling better soon.

Ugh, I'm sorry. DS had the virus on Thursday - it seems like he didn't have it too bad compared to what I've heard here. He vomited about 4 times, no diarrhea, and was feeling better by Thursday night. He still doesn't have his appetite back 100%, but he fortunately started drinking water right away. I've just been giving him bland foods, but all he really seems to want is crackers, water and milk.

I haven't caught it yet, but DH woke up sick as a dog this morning. I'm praying I somehow escape this!

Dd threw up non stop from 4pm to 2 am last night. It was awful, all she wanted to do was nurse and it was just an evil cycle of nurisng and vomitting. Luckily she is better today.
