Hi
Thanks for your query
Welcome to HCM
As per discussion you should consult to gastroenterologist/surgeon to rule out gastric outlet obstruction(GOO)
Nausea and vomiting are the main symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction. Vomiting usually is non-bilious, and it characteristically contains undigested food particles. In the early stages of obstruction, vomiting may be intermittent and usually occurs within 1 hour of a meal
Within the pediatric population, pyloric stenosis constitutes the most important cause of GOO.Pyloric stenosis is the result of gradual hypertrophy of the circular smooth muscle of the pylorus

Hi,
it shall be interesting to visit a pediatrician to exclude or diagnose why your daughter is not able to eat or put on weight. If chronic and other systemic pathologies or some infections are excluded, then a nutritious diet protocol can be suggested to manage this issue.
Its worth visiting a pediatrician for a proper evaluation and followup.
Hope this helps,
