Reflux - when to be worried?

Yesterday my 12 day old DD sicked up loads of milk, (4pm feed) at 7-8pm she fed fine but did the same at midnight feed. Her night time feed (3.30am) she kept milk down fine, but has just done it again (7-8am feed).
She's been okay till now. I had to stop bf at six days (I had problems after my epidural which meant I couldn't sit or stand upright) and she lost more than 10%, but yesterday health vistor weighed her and she's back to her birth weight.
Don't want her to lose weight again. She's a really well behaved baby, only cries when needs new nappy/feed (she gets lots of cuddles!!), so wondering when I should be concerned.
We took her to GP yesterday because her belly button is a bitg infected and wondering whether it could be related to this? xxx

i wouldnt be concerned. most babies have some sick but she could be full? their tummies are very small and formula can be quite heavy on their delicate tummies. breast milk is pre digested and formula baby has to do the work, maybe reduce down her feed slightlyy?. just a thought.
