    I should clarify, the reason i'm clueless is that's this is the first time she is fine but i'm not on a preschool day

    Gastro is awful hon so big hugs.

    Your DD is (was?) contagious for 48 hours after the last vomit or watery bowel movement. If she's out of that time frame then she should be good to go.

    Hope you're feeling better soon.

    I really feel for you. DD1 had gastro for the first time earlier this year and both DH and I got it too. Thankfully DD2 was spared but boy was it hard work looking after two kids when we were both sick.
