What Causes White Stringy Frothy Saliva In An Infant?

Hi. My daughter is 7 months old and has been very grumpy last few days and bringing up white foam which is a bit like stringy frothy saliva. I took her to b weighed today and only put on 3ozs in 5wks. She is also allergic to dairy proteins and soya. She is breast fed and on jar foods.
