Vomiting restarting after 48 hours

DD1 was sick 4 times Saturday and then was fine, eating and drinking normally for 48 hours and then was randomly sick again! Is this normal? Should I expect a repeat of the weekend? Or likely to be a one off? Was just thinking the 6 adults and one other child with her had escaped and now we’re back to square one 😂

This happens most times when my daughter gets a bug. Normally repeats the cycle two to three times and then finally clears it. It seems to be triggered by starting to eat more normal foods/more food.

My youngest was like this after every bug and had a habit of over eating junk at Christmas and Easter 🙄which also set off the vomiting.

In the end I spoke to school and said I would be sending her in after the initial 48 hours otherwise she would never be there.

Interesting…are they contagious again from that point of it’s been 48+ hours?

Not usually it’s just they have a trigger reflex to vomit.

I learned the hard way not to store our sick bucket away prematurely!!
