I do think it’s odd tho no vomiting and regular, formed bowel moments.


This was going around my daycare in DC- hit every kid a little different. Some just stomach pains, some throwing up, some diarrhea


Pp here - that’s good to know since I’ve been worried about the odd symptoms of just random stomach pain. Any idea how long it lasted? We are headed towards day 4 which seems terribly long for gastro virus.


Op here. We are on day 5. Agree this is LONG.


Pp here. Sorry, OP! This is the longest and weirdest virus for us and has me stressed out that we need to see dr again or do further trsting. I just want it to be over! Hope your DC feels better soon!

Possibly because we are concerned for our beloved children. We want to make sure that get healthy and that there isn’t something more serious at hand. If you don’t have something nice to say keep it to yourself please. You’re not obligated to post anything.

My four year old feels achy with a low grade fever, and ear pain when she moves. Is watching tv and eating some. No cold symptoms. May do doctor tomorrow.

My DS had the same thing. Pediatrician just said stomach virus, give lots of fluids but no dairy. It's terrible.

Toddler had intermittent vomiting and has now been lethargic for 2-3 days. Had a fever briefly a few days ago. Sleeping a lot.
