RP: 12-24 mos Stomach bug

Our almost 3 yr old had it Thursday night and Friday morning...just vomiting.  She wasn't herself until Sunday night into Monday...one bout of diarrhea. 

 Our 6 month old started Saturday night.  Vomited a few times and then fell back to sleep until morning.  Sunday she kept down pedialyte and a 1tbsp of cereal around lunchtime.  Had a few oz of formula in the afternoon and then prob 4 oz before bed.  Yesterday ( Monday ) she had her formula, but wasn't eating a lot...prob had about 14 oz all day.  Had last bottle at 5pm and was down until this morning.  Got up around 545 so I gave her a bottle thinking she'd be starving.  She took 4 oz, fell asleep in my arms, I put her over my shoulder to burp her, she had a nice burp and then threw EVERYTHING up...looked like even from the day before, so that means she's still not digesting normally :( 

 Anyway, we went to the pedi today and we've just been doing pedialyte and some solids (apples, bananas).  So far, she's kept it all down. 

I guess my question is, if you've experienced a baby this young with a stomach virus, do you have any tips?  Usually how long will this persist...I'm guessing a week.  Oh and she's cutting her 2 top teeth.  Poor baby :(

TIA!
