thanks for writing
pl observe if your daughter has any signs of dehydration
like.............dry mouth.............sunken eyes.............passing urine normally or not..............
baby may have to be started on IV fluids if these signs are present................
if not................oral rehydration with ORS and oral antiemetics should suffice
take care
