How long should diarrhea last with a stomach bug?

I’m now on day 5, still got awful yellow diarrhea multiple times through the day and can be through the night. Is it normal for it to last this long 😭

I'm so sorry to hear this. Five days seems a long time. I am very vulnerable to tummy bugs but I don't think I've ever had diarrhoea for more than 48 hours. Has it eased off at all and do you have any other symptoms?

I started off the week being sick once and slept for the whole day Monday, and have been left with a little nausea no appetite and this debilitating diarrhoea! I know it’s a bug because my 2 young daughters have also had it
