7 days after my daughter, I too developed a gastro. 3 days later, it was my spouse's turn. My daughter was taking probiotics. Could it all be caused by the same virus? Is my daughter at risk of getting it again?

Hello, it is possible that taking probiotics has reduced the symptoms of gastro in your daughter, so she had it and the only manifestation was some vomiting during 1 hour. On the other hand, being pregnant, your immune system is less ready to fight, so you had it with many symptoms. The main thing for you is to stay hydrated. Your spouse has also had it. I would still monitor your daughter for symptoms (fever, fatigue, vomiting and diarrhea) and continue to give her probiotics to reduce the symptoms if the virus returns. Congratulations on your pregnancy!!! I am available for other questions!

Thank you very much :) what I was really wondering is that since there were 7 days between my daughter's bug and my first symptoms, could it be the same bug or not?
