Hello,
Some symptoms to watch for would be vomiting, excess somnolence, irritability or other changes in behavior, excessive crying, bleeding or clear fluid from the nose or ear, abnormal limping walk, pupils of unequal size, seizures.
The observation time is for 24 hours, 48 at most, afterwards it's unlikely she'll develop any symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
