    I don't blame you for not being happy. I wouldn't either. However, since noro is a fairly fast acting virus, you are probably in the clear. I hope the rest of your pregnancy is uneventful. Welcome to the forums.

    Aw. What a stupid thing for them to do! That must have been really stressful for you- did you manage to sit in the room while she threw up?

    I agree with Grace that you're probably in the clear and by this time tomorrow you will know for certain.

    I hope you're okay otherwise and the headaches aren't getting you down too much

    hey, that's really awful! I would have had a panic attack! I've had the SV* four times in my life when I was younger, and every single time I was struck literally 14 hours later. As Grace said, it does indeed strike you very fast! I think that you will be perfectly fine.

    Welcome to the forums by the way!

    You probably would know by now if you would have gotten it. Also, if you are hygenic, like every emet is, I'm sure you'll be fine

    Hey girl, how is your head? How is your blood pressure? Did they make you do a urine test? I hope everything was good and they sent you back home.

    I would have been upset too. They are going to take precautions to ensure it will not spread. They do not want preg women and newborns sick.

    Hang in there. Prayers, hugs

    Thanks everyone got a bit of a bad stomach but never no if it's the baby pressing on my organs or ( I have gallstones ) so could be that flaring up.. And yeah cynna had loads of tests because I with my daughter who's 10 1/2 months old I had cholerstatis of the liver so had to get checked over! And no she didn't vomit while she was in there thank god.. She had been in there before I got there and they where just pumpin the I.v meds and zofron into her then that's when I heard the dr say she had a stomach Virus ugh.
    I was next to her for about 2nhalf hours.. Blugh the joys of having kids!!!
