If there is no fever or vomiting make sure she s having plenty of liquids in the form of ors, water, coconut water.
You may also give a probiotic- enterogermina 1 respule once a day for 5 days.
Keep a watch on urine output. She should pass urine atleast 5-6 times in 24 hrs
Reduce milk intake for 1 week
If you have started her on any new food avoid it for the next week
Next Steps
In case of blood in stools, decreased urine output or lethargy you must get her examined for dehydration
