Does Tiredness And Vomiting Sound Like Absence Seizures?

My daughter who is 4 years old may have suffered from an absence seizure this past weekend. She woke up and vomited and then seemed dazed but was very tired as we had a long day. She threw up 4 times that night. She has not seemed to have any episodes since. Is vomiting part of absence seizures?
