Does this sound like an allergy?

Our 2 month old DD has the following symptoms:

- watery eyes, had clogged tear ducts when born 

- stuffy nose at times

- coughs and/or gasps when eating and when not eating

- has to sleep and lay at an incline, coughs/gags when on back

- gassy

 -fussy before passing gas 

- fussy before having a poop blow out

- fussiness for the gas and BM is more in the evenings

 - she's fine after passing the gas and having a BM

 She is EBF.  She has dark mustard seedy stools, which sometimes looks mucousy.  I'm not quite sure about the mucous though even after looking at previous post. 

 Our doctor hasn't mentioned an allergy.  She says babies are trying to figure their bodies out and they feel the gas pain and don't know what it is so they get fussy.  I've eliminated the obvious dairy and have been reading the labels, and at times I think it helps, but she still has nights like she used to before cutting it out which makes me think it's not a dairy allergy. I've been off of it for more than a month unless I've received hidden dairy.


Im so confused and sorry if if none of that made sense.  Just trying to get all my thoughts out and help my baby girl.

    If the doctor didnt mention anything like it is allergy, I dont think it is an allergy. Like the doctor said the babys body might be really trying to settle down. There can be a lot of different reasons might be causing those effect for your baby girl. So, I think the best thing will be to bring her to another doctor.
