Have you ever had Norovirus?

Me and my daughter (age 4) habe has this for a few days. It's been horrendous. Has anyone had it? The S&D gone but we just feel sleepy and still can't eat. Should I be worried that my child is not hungry? I'm making sure she drinks loads of water. Anyone know how long it lasts?

My lot had vomiting for 24 hours followed by several days of feeling shite. Leaves you feeling drained.

It can take a few days to feel normal again. Frequent water is main thing, yes.

Active Norov lasts for max 36 hrs in healthy people. If you're still puking then you've got a different undelightful bug, sorry.

I had it when 6 months pregnant. Absolutely awful, felt terrible for days after the vomiting stopped

Do you think my 4 year will be ok if not eating? She saying she not hungry. She's not in pain just feels tired and saying she is going a bit hot and cold.

If otherwise healthy, yes.

I used to let mine have a lolly to try to ease their digestion system back into action.

It’s a horrid bug. Leaves you feeling wiped out.
Drinking is the main thing. As long as she’s drinking she will be ok - all of us lost our appetite for about a week when we had it.
