My boyfriend does too but no vomiting so im not sure if this is the start of a stomach virus or not.. If so what can i do to prevent it from it spreading to my other daughter an i? Im pregnant an really want to prevent it..

Hi there!

Most stomach bugs spread by feco-oral route and if hygiene is maintained such as bathing and cleaning the toilet area, spread is unlikely.
Hope this information is helpful.

Take care!
