5 year old w/ mucous in her stills

My 5 year old in very healthy except for reoccuring abdominal pain. she has had past problems with consipation but has not had problems for sometime now.......She will be bent over in pain which is usually relieved for some time by having a bowel movement.....Somedays the abdominal pain is moderate. they dr said if it persists that maybe we would do an ultrasound....any suggestions on what it might be??? thanks

Hi,
Since when did the pain episode start?
Any blood in stools?
Does it affect her sleep or play activities?

There is no blood in her stools. Yes it does affect her sleep and play activities. She wakes frequently with abdominal pain. This all started 2 months ago. She has an US and Xray that just confirmed some mild constipation.
