Hi, it appears that she is a case of lactose intolarance, means allergic to the milk and milk products. it can be confirmed by testing the reducing substances in the stools. It usually is cured automatically at the age of 5 years.
Till that time for maintenance consult a pediatritian for diagnosis and treatment,You may have to stop giving milk, and start giving soya substitutes. . Thank you.
