No late feeds: Try not to feed late. Many foods can lead to reflux and cause such pain. Ideally dinner should be 2-3 hours before bedtime. Summers are tricky since kids tend to stay up late and eat late. naturally caloric/fatty foods should be avoided. Consider an OTC antacid. Evaluate if needed by consulting your pediatrician. There are many other causes for such pain, including bloating, food intolerance, etc.

Not normal: she needs to see a pediatrician for full investigations of abdominal pain, may have stomach ulcer or constipation, needs evaluation
