Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
If your daughter appears to be behaving like her usual self, (ie. Interacting well, playing appropriately with her friends, etc...) It is less likely that she is experiencing real abdominal pain. The gurgling you hear when you put your ear to her abdomen is normal. It's absence would indicate a problem. So there is no need for concern.
