If it were me, I'd put her back in prefolds for a while, until things get a bit more under control. Sounds like she may be having some digestive issues? As for the peeing all over,

Yeah... definitely has some issues. But what??? No wheat? I need to keep my weight up and I'm already having trouble after having eliminated processed sugar and cheese.

fwiw, it took me 10 days of block feeding for my oversupply to normalize so that ds wouldnt have any more green stools.
i agree, though, that she likely has a food allergy or undiagnosed thrush. Do you have pink nipples? sometimes thrush does not present with white patches in baby's mouth...
sorry for no caps - typing w/1 hand (nursing)...

ick!
ds is gluten and dairy sensitive (plus onions, beans, spicey foods...)
he gets diarhea with the gluten and dairy, which in my book is precisely what you've observed-- green runny poo that he can't seem to control.
put her back in prefolds for a while-- it won't be a "regression" for her unless you treat it that way (still try to catch what you can, ykwim?) i agree with the pp as to waiting out at least 2 weeks post dairy dropping to see how things go. in the mean time, if you are anxious and want to do *something*, start a food journal and record her poops, moods, and anything else strange behavior wise, rash wise, etc.
oh, and for what it's worth, the frequent pees (every 15 minutes most of the day, teeny ones) for ds went away after i cut gluten.

thank god. totally worth it. he has so much more control now. unfortunately right now, he is using that control to strike instead.

my mom raised me without much refined sugar, and when i would have a bunch (halloween, a birthday party, etc.) i would pee like crazy. i'm no doctor, and mom isn't either, but we believed that it was my body just purging itself of something it thought poisonous or bad. i think that's what ds's system was doing with gluten.

Kokopelli- We're going on 5 months block feeding. 
Pink nipples? No, they're brown. You mean the tips?
Gluten... ack. Bread is the staple here and it's really hard to survive without it. I wish I could but everyone will think I'm not eating their bread on purpose, that I don't like it or think it's dirty. :-(
