Hi, Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum.
She may be having Gastroenteritis secondary to Rotavirus or any other causative organism. You should be taking her to a Pediatrician and get examined and if need be get a Stool culture done. She may need antibiotics. Feed her Plenty of fluids and give her sponge baths to bring her temperature down. Check her temperature every 4th hourly.

Good Luck.
