Brief Answer:
Just relax, she will be alright soon, help her to get burp

Detailed Answer:
Hello
welcome again

It might be related to viral infection or abdominal colic.

I would advise you to follow these guidelines
1. Sit upright and hold your baby against your chest. Your baby's chin should rest on your shoulder as you support the baby with one hand and XXXXXXX or rub her back with other hand gently
2. Hold your baby sitting up, in your lap or across your knee and XXXXXXX her back gently
3. Lay your baby on your lap on her belly.

It will help her to burp and expel out the air she swallowed while feeding

Hope this helps her. please feel free to ask for further discussion.
Best wishes
