So I have a family of three, me, my husband and our 11 month only. The baby and I had the virus which I guess was the Norovirus two days ago. My husband has it today. I still feel really queasy still today... not sure why but is this normal? Also, with him having it today, can we catch this again?? I read somewhere that says your immune for 14 weeks but I wanted to hear your experience since I haven't had the stomach flu in YEARS. Ofcourse I've been disinfecting everything since including today. Thanks!

    It can take time for your stomach to settle down after this bug. It took my dad several days before he got his full appetite back and he was very cautious at first about what he ate.I had it several years ago and it only lasted 24 hours. I ate blandly at first and was cautious about how my stomach would react to food. However, once I started eating again, I felt better.

      I did feel slightly queasy afterwards but I found that small sips of milk settled it.

    It will take at least a,week to feel better but I don't think you will get it again. Hope you feel better soon.
