Is it possible to have stomach virus with JUST diarrhea ?

My 15 mo old vomited once on Saturday...but then was fine...all good spirits but appetite was def not usual...

Then Sunday she had bad diarrhea like 5+ times - like blowouts we have to change outfit kind Chat Icon

I chalked it up to her new molars she is getting...

She still has diarrhea 3-4 days later..her appetite is a little better ..but not 100% but her mood is normal..usual girl to us!

But now I , myself, am on day 3 of diarrhea ...no vomiting or no other symptoms of a stomach virus...THANK GOD - BTDT -not fun! Except for going to the bathroom often, I feel fine...just my appetite not up to par...

Do you think it is something we both ate or a virus..I have only had the virus when I have all the usual symptoms..

Confused?!! Chat Icon

yup we had the same thing in our house. both my DD's and then me. What fun. Good thing is I think it was 3 days of just an upset stomach and then started to feel better in the next 2 days.

I can handle this type of stomach virus....Some kids get one or the other or both..... BRAT diet and no dairy. It prolongs the poopies.. White grape juice helps heal the intestinal tract....

Yes ds just had this. Diarrhea for about 5 days. He did vomit randomly twice but he has a horrible gag reflex and its not uncommon for that to happen to him.

DS had this last year for a few days. I just tried to give him binding foods, pedialyte, and formula for vomiting/diarrhea (he was like 7 mos approx).

Yes..this is VERY TRUE!!!

I have had the one with both...and I wouldn't wish that on my worse enemy..at least this one I can function...to an extent! Chat Icon

Ugh and the more I read about it..it says we can be contagious for up to 2 weeks! Not too worried about me .. But changing her diapers I am going in with a mask and gloves...Chat Icon Chat Icon

Hopefully we are coming to the end...by the weekend!
We cut out her night time bottle the last two nights..

But she is having some weight gaining issues (on pedisure until next weight check) so this is DEF DEF DEF NOT helping!Chat Icon
