There are two other possibilities for your daughter...

1) diabetes insipidus is excessive urination and originates in the brain.

2) regular sugar diabetes, starts sometimes this way, with excessive urination in children -- type I
They would also have excessive thirst and some weight loss.
Eating a high carb high sugar diet will make this more pronounced too.

Diabetes insipidus is hormonal but does not involve sugar/glucose.
It is treated differently from sugar diabetes.
