HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If this is a long term problem (more than a week), then she should be reviewed because pedialyte is not enough for brain and body growth, it does not have in the essential ingredients that a baby would need long term.
She may be vomiting due to infection, intolerance to the particular milk (may need to be changed), reflux, obstruction.
It would be best for her to be reviewed.
I hope this helps
