agree about the water and maybe unflavored pedialyte as diarhea is much more dehydrating than throwing up so make sure to check her gums and pinch back of neck skin and if it sticks and stays up and does not bounce back real quick then dehydrated. If she is a tiny and does not pass those tests have them give her sub q's so you can take her home to be with you rather than iv fluids. Also use some nutrical. If she is not eating maybe try 3/4 rice 1/4 chicken and try in small amounts - white rice though NOT BROWN as brown is harder to digest and will make things worse as alot of fiber i know it happened to me too much pumpkin can have reverse affect too and brown rice can make it worse
