Nausea : Nausea and vomiting are common in kids and are usually caused by a short-lived viral illness. While most children do not need to be seen by a doctor, here are a few "red flags" that should prompt you to call your child's doctor. -worsening symptoms instead of improving after 24 hours -dehydration: if you notice dry mouth, lack of tears, no urine for 8 hours, sunken eyes, rapid pulse or breathing, these are signs of dehydration. -bile (green) or blood tinged (red or brown) vomit -severe abdominal pain, even if it comes and goes -fever more than 102f or more than 101f for a few days -change in behavior including decreased responsiveness legal disclaimer: I am providing this general and basic information as a public service and my response to this question does not constitute a doctor-patient relationship.

Maybe: If she is eating, sleeping, and peeing/pooping normally, probably not. It sounds like she may have contracted a virus, which is getting better from your description. If she develops a fever or the vomiting returns, or if you still feel uncomfortable about her condition, seek the attention of your pediatrician.
