Stomach virus question

in Parenting
Thursday night around 7 I started feeling sick, started vomiting and fever around 11. Fever broke early morning hours and vomiting stopped around 2am (nothing left). Slept most of day Friday feeling nauseous and having massive headache. Ate very little, few bites of toast etc, kept it down. Friday night (24 hr Mark) started feeling much much better.

Most of saturday still felt weak and run down. A bit queasy at times. Figured bc I hadn't eaten. Still ate light- toast, plain pasta, turkey sandwich, sips of coke, water.

Sat night- starving. Feeling better. It's now 48 hours and about 40 hrs since any puking. H made pancakes. And I had milk.


So go to bed at 9, wake up at midnight super nauseous, finally puke guts up at 230am.


What gives? Still the same virus? Was I over eager with the pancakes? Something else? This is going into day 4 now ... I thought stomach viruses were usually like 24 hrs

I don't want to Google, it just asks me if I've been out of the country and I haven't lol

    No advice sadly. That's gotta suck tho. Hopefully you feel better soon. Anyway it was food poisoning?

    I don't think so because my family ate the same food I did and I'm the only one sick :(

    Thanks

    Sorry that sucks. I wish I was of some help. I'd just take it easy and if not better by Monday then call the doc if you can. Feel better soon and hopefully it was just a fluke bc you ate too much too soon. Hopefully someone that's been there or has some knowledge will chime in.

    We all had a bug last week that was pretty weird. No fever, and the puking didn't last long, but we were rundown and nauseated after eating for several days.

    I'm not a professional, but this same bug is going around here. I think your stomach was probably still weak from the original puking and you over did it with the food. Eat more bland food - rice, broth, bananna, cracker. Hope you feel better soon!

    Thanks guys.

    This sucks. H is working a double today so I'm on my own with two kids and hardly slept at all last night, plus I'm weak and rundown.

    Sipping some water and nibbling some crackers.... I miss coffee :(

    Thanks all. I agree I guess my stomach wasn't ready. Sigh. I think I just assumed that since I hadn't been sick for almost 2 whole days I'd be ok.

    Ugh! How am I supposed to know when I can eat again? Lol.
    I had some crackers, so far so good. I have chicken soup in the house and I will probably make some plain rice I guess if all goes well today.

    I can't wait until nap time so I can nap too!

    There is one going around here that comes back for a second round of puking. I hope it's over now and you feel better soon.

    It's just cruel. Lol

    Thanks :)

    DS has one on Christmas which resulted in puking in the car twice. Then he came down with another one the other day that affects the other end. Hopefully your ass will be spared!

    Oh no!
    I hope so too, but given the choice between puking and the other end, I'll take the other end! Haha
