My mother in law recently gave my 7 months old little girl pudding...not even joking! that was friday, and today she still has gas and for the past two nights wont sleep very long at all, she curls up like her belly is hurting. Is this bc of the pudding that she gave her. i dont know what to do for her, she just screams and its breaking my heart! Please someone help me help my baby :(

Very likely the cause of the gas and pain. I am assuming you are breastfeeding?
Pasteurized dairy can often do this to little ones.

To help her out, see if you can get some infant Bifidum for her, and also, try and eat lots of probiotics yourself if you are breastfeeding her.

And please, both you and your DH need to have it out with MIL. She should never have given her a processed sugary food.

No I'm not breastfeeding, i stopped at 5 months. thank you very much for the advice, however i am new to this and have no idea what infant bifidum is or what Dh stands for...lol. i have given her gas drops to see if that will ease her pain but i dont think it does :( Thank you again :)

Infant bifidum is a special baby pro biotic. You can find it in the fridge section of your local natural foods and supplements store.
It will do what the gas drops cannot, which is re-culture her gut with its proper bacteria.

Was it maybe homemade pudding.. :)? Anyways, sounds like it was the cause of it to me. If she is eating other solids yet try yogurt, and gentle foods like steamed pears or peaches for a few days.
