    Default When do you think we will be safe..and has this happened to anyone else?

    My daughter V** once on monday night around 1030pm, and then i gave her a zofran and she went to bed, woke up feeling fine!! When will me and my husband and son be in the clear??
    And has anyone else had a child only V** once? weird..last year she was sick for about 6 hours before it stopped.

    It doesn't sound like she had a bug tbh so you're probably all in the clear already. Not all vomiting is caused by a virus, although I think we all tend to jump to that "worst case scenario" conclusion, myself included! But, say it was viral, then the incubation time is 12-48 hours with about 30 or so hours being the most common time for symptoms to strike.

    Kids and even adults can vomit just the once - my fiance did twice last year and it frightened the hell out of me and we never did get to the bottom of what it was but I never got it - luckily for him lol

    My daughters aunt had a stomach virus the other day and only v* once and then one of her other kids did the exact same thing. Now my daughter is coming down with it too.....really freaking out about it!

    It could have been a virus and the Zofran helped her. I imagine since it has been a week now, you're definitely safe from whatever it was.

    @scaredtovomit85 - Just keep your hands clean and away from your face, and you'll be fine.
