Not typically: Stomach virus tends to cause consistent symptoms for only a couple days. More serious bacterial diarrheas may last several days without interruption. Is there some sort of family discord on mwf that may be upsetting the child? If the pattern persists, see pediatrician for evaluation & thorough history to find the cause.
