With a stomach bug, how common is it to only experience 1 instance of vomiting? wouldn't a stomach bug be more likely to cause reoccuring vomiting while infected?

: Not necessarily. A mild viral gastritis may have only one episode of vomiting. Make sure the child is well hydrated. Use Pedialyte to ensure electrolyte balance and hydration.
