Repeated attack of Norovirus over 2 week period - help!

I started the family of with norovirus the day before half term (caught from visiting my grandad in hospital) - it went through the family. dd1- aged 7 had d+v at the start of half term than felt better - 3 days later she vomited 3 times again in the night. 3 days after that she got more diarreah but no vomiting. last night - a week later she was up vomiting all night again. I'm sure it is still norovirus as (tmi) it has a very distinct odour that I've become all too familiar with in the last 2 weeks.

I don't know what to do - I'm being scrupulous with hygiene. I have had 3 hospital appointments (unrelated to norovirus) for the dds this week, the hospital is closed to visitors at the moment due to norovirus outbreak so I really don't like having to be there so often.

From what I've read having norovirus is meant to afford you 14 weeks immunity - has anyone else had experience of repeated bouts of it?
