So far, you have been doing all that you can. You're going to have to be a patient patient and wait for the stool culture. Make sure your daughter drinks plenty of fluid. Electrolyte containing fluid such as "Gatorade" is probably a little better than water since electrolytes are lost in diarrhea and vomiting. I hope that this was helpful.
