Skybie is right. Limit contact between the sick children and everyone else. Wash or alcohol gel everyone's hands religiously. Don't give your baby any toys or objects to play with that have been handled by the other children without being disinfected first.

Good luck!

I think its too late. I think she has it. I dunno, the vomit she just did wasn't your usual baby chuck. It kept going. I dunno how do describe it.
The whole feed came up, over about 30 seconds & wasn't fresh, even though she'd just fed.
Do I worry? Or do I wait it out for a bit?

If you are able to, I'd make an appointment to take her to the Dr just in case. Go with your instinct - if you think it's not a "normal" vomit, get her checked out. Hope she doesn't have it, and that the others recover quickly.

ps she's gorgeous, by the way.

I totally feel for you right now as we had similar antics overnight with DS. I have anxiety towards him throwing up so that doesnt help at all. I really dont want DD to get it either, she hasnt had any signs yet THANK GOODNESS! But when DD was only a month old DS had a severe bout of gastro (i even suspect rota virus). DD thankfully didnt get it and i just made sure i used the detol hand sanitizer and hand wash religiously, especially when touching her or doing anything for her, feeding etc. Today i have been spraying the house with Glen 20 and spray and wiping everything in hope to kill any bugs. I have also constantly been putting the detol hand sanitizer on DD & DS's hands. I have the doors and windows open too to air the place out. So i think thats all you can really do and just try and keep DS away from your DD.
As for washing clothes etc.. i picked up some Detol in the wash stuff you put into your laundry to kill germs. So have been washing DS's sheets, clothes and anything he touched last night with that.
Hope for you and us that is just stops at our DSs.

Thanks guys.
Yeah, been doing what I can. She seems ok now, though he's still pretty sick. Poor bubba.
I use dettol in the wash with DD's stuff anyway & have been adding an anti bacterial solution today as well.
I just hope it all stays with DS & doesn't spread to the older girls. DH has them out for the day fishing, so we might be lucky. Guess we'll know by tomorrow.
