Then maybe we can still go on our trip.

What would you guys do about the trip? We're supposed to leave in 2 days (but in the afternoon), it's about an hour and a half drive to where we're staying in a hotel. Dh has stuff planned but I could stay in the hotel room with sick kids if any kids become sick while we are there. I don't think cancelling the trip altogether is an option. Dh would have to go anyway, unless he is sick.

I would get a small trash can / coffee can / something of that size, get a ton of grocery sacks and a roll of paper towels, line the can with the grocery sack and the sack with some paper towels, and go. Most likely you wouldn't need to use it, but it's there if you need it.

Yeah, I think we'll just be prepared and go anyway especially since it seems to be a quick, mild bug. We may end up spending the vacation in the hotel room, but that's still more exciting than home, and we'll be with dh much of the time. There was a lot we wanted to do, though, so I'm hoping we can still do it.

We've the "midnight pukes and all is good" sickness here. Random. We go on with life and don't even try to figure out where it's coming from.

We have had at least 3 cases of this this winter...I almost think it is just our body's way of flushing the bug...They go to sleep and wake up totally fine. One or two of us gets GI symptoms instead and it works it's way out of the house.

every one else stays healthy... I hate having stomach issues in the house...I'd rather have a nasty cold for 3 weeks.

ETA: I would pack a big roll of paper towels, some grocery bags, extra hand soap, and lysol just in case...But if it is a bug= as mild as it seems to be it hopefully it won't hit any one else.

Yes, but the worst one to get sick is always the second youngest. They're still little enough to need lots of care but you can't because of the baby. So at least she already got it. She's been fine all day, but we're having a broth-based soup for dinner, jic. Don't need to rush anything. She hasn't seemed sick at all, though- seems like she just needed to get something out of her system.

We'll definitely be prepared on our trip, with the stuff you guys mentioned in addition to some herbs, ginger ale, gatorade, and zofran.

I agree with you on the cold!

Yep. I really wonder why emetaphobia is so prevalent.

Dd ate her dinner (I made soup with toast for obvious reasons. She ate her toast, her sister's toast, and a few bites of soup- for her that's quite good). She's felt fine all day long and so far everyone else feels fine, too (dh and I are tired from being up all night, though). Dd1's nausea was just temporary, and like I said, she gets that from time to time anyway.

I'm glad she's feeling better. no one else gets it.

I have ideas about why I developed emetophobia, but I've actually only come across very few people who have it.

Well we enjoyed our trip and no one got sick. Dd2 (the one who was sick Monday night) had one watery poop. It was weird, though, because she threw up several days ago, then had normal poops for a few days, then one watery poop yesterday, then back to normal poops. So it might have not even been related to the throwing up. We've all been sharing cups and stuff, plus dd2 pooped in the hot tub (not the watery poop, though) so I hope none of us get sick in the days to come, but even if we do, I am glad we have all been healthy for a fun trip!

Thanks for all your reassurances about going! I'm glad we went!
