Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.

Children get stomach pain because of so many reasons.
Some times the cause can be simple and benign. Rarely there could be a dangerous cause for the stomach pain.
Your child needs to be investigated further. This is because he is waking up with pain. I think you should consult your doctor for examinations and investigation.

Hope this helps
Take care
