If 1 person got the stomach flu, did u all get it?

Ugh...DH started with the dreaded stomach bug last night and I am so afraid of getting it too.  If we both have it, we have no one who can take care of our kids or even help out.  I am purelling like crazy, but I also have a really bad immune system and am freaking out.

  • There have been times when only one of my kids have gotten it, and the rest of us have been spared.   However, whenever my dh or I got it, the other one got it, too.

  • Julia had it last week and somehow the rest of us avoided it. Emma had a few runny diapers but nothing else, DH and I were fine. Hopefully you'll get lucky!

  • yep. started with the baby, then my husband and i (at exactly the same minute!!), and extended to my mom, stepdad, and brother.

    sorry!

  • We had it a few weeks ago here and everyone got it.

  • No.  We've had it go through our house twice in the last couple of years and neither time did I catch it.  

    I was a freak though about hand washing, Purel and also Lysol every night before bed.  

    I did have an icky-stomach and ate a lot lighter than I normally would (everyone was on a BRATT diet for those few days) but luckily I never got sick.

  • When I got it 2 years ago, I was hit hard, Rob was just "meh" but okay and went to work, and RP never got it. This year Rob and I both had a touch of it and again, RP was fine.

  • Our kids got it and we didnt.....but right now we are all crazy sick with horrible chest colds, coughs, & sinus infections. 
  • gray puked friday night.... was fine the next day.  Griffin puked last night- and so far today is fine....

    so far dh and i feel fine- but we're not out of the woods that's for sure.  Gibby is probably next... my boys are usually 2 days apart when the stomach bug hits.

    I used to be Goldie_locks_5 but the new nest is so screwed up that I was forced to start over.

  • not in my house.  both of my kids had it, each at a different time, and nobody else ever got it. 
  • DS has gotten it 2x in the past 6 weeks and so far we haven't gotten it.  He was sick thursday-friday.  I think we are in the clear since its been 4 days now..

  • We pretty much all got it,  I had it and 25 hours later, so did DH.  THe only consolation was that it was a quick moving "storm".
  • Oddly, my husband and I got hit, but the kids didn't.  I'm glad, but it's strange.

  • knock on wood, we  did not...we do a quaretine...we have enough bedrooms and bathrooms that the sick one can be kept away from everyone else....plus purel and all that other stuff...

    can you sleep in another room?

  • Luckily my daughter new got it.  My mom, her primary caregiver, had it; then a few days later my husband had it and then a few more days I got it.  She was fine the whole time.  Ours unfortunately wasn't quick moving.  It last at leat 4 days for each of us.
  • Yes :(

    It was much faster for us than my DD... she was knocked out for days
