Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
the pain abdomen may be due to urinary tract infection,Amoebiasis,colicky pain due to intestinal spasm or worm infestation.
Keeping in view the family history of Celiac and IBS she needs thorough investigation including ulrasound abdomen.

Better consult pedatrician.
