How recent is this problem? If recent sometimes a local mouth condition such as an infection caused by a fungus, commonly known as thrush, may be the reason. In thrush a whitish or curd like material covers tongue, inner side of the cheeks or lips. There may be some sores inside mouth. If you find anything unusual take a picture and upload it by tapping the + sign above.

Throat infection such as Streptococcal Sore Throat needing treatment with antibiotics usually does not occur before 2 years of age. That caused by viruses is mostly associated with runny nose and cough and doesn’t need treatment with antibiotics. As regards introduction of solid foods one should wait until 6 months of age.

She may be suffering from infantile colic. Do you give her any drops for colic? How much milk she takes? May be she doesn’t feed properly
