Probably your child is suffering from acute gastroenteritis or a gastro intestinal infection. Give her plenty of fluids and ORS but avoid milk for the time being. It is common for children not to eat properly when ill. Give ondem (ondansetron) to reduce vomiting. You would have to be a bit patient and it will take two to three days to resolve. Keep hydrating her in the meantime.
