It was terrrrible. Then i got it for about 6 days but only threw up for a day. E was fine with pedialyte and crackers but she was still a hot mess </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-gastro-last-for-your-lo#post-2300316 Thu, 24 Sep 2015 06:56:58 +0000 Nutella 2300316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: thanks for that. So sorry to hear that - must have been scary! :sad: Yeah the doc said anywhere between 7-10 days is normal - and was happy he wasn't too dehydrated so that's a positive. Def need to keep an eye on it though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-gastro-last-for-your-lo#post-2300306 Thu, 24 Sep 2015 06:31:07 +0000 delight 2300306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a bad case of gastro in January. Unfortunately for us it escalated to hospitalization because she got severely dehydrated and needed IV. Keep an eye on your little guy! My DD was just vomiting a couple times a day for a few days and then woke up one morning and was very lethargic and listless. Gastro lasted 7 days for us and 4 nights were in the hospital. Keep giving him lots of fluids. We would do syringes of pedialyte. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-gastro-last-for-your-lo#post-2300302 Thu, 24 Sep 2015 06:17:31 +0000 Nutella 2300302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bumping! Anyone have any experience?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-gastro-last-for-your-lo#post-2300160 Wed, 23 Sep 2015 21:35:09 +0000 Nutella 2300160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My little man (19mo) has got viral gastro and has been having diarrhoea for four days, along with low energy and minimal appetite. He's lost a bit of weight in his belly and cheeks, so I'm taking him back to his doctor this evening, but just curious to see how long we can expect it to continue?</p> <p>My DH also had it (both caught it at same time), but he has finally come through and is ok again.</p> <p>Feel so bad seeing him so miserable! :sad: </p> <p>Thanks in advance. </p>
