Colic

Hello,
I think my 3week old has colic.
She is sick a lot after feeding (ebf) coughs a lot when feeding and has the hiccups a lot.
Does it sound like colic? And at what point do you go to the gp?
I try to burp her but rarely get much out

Could be reflux but from the description it sounds more like a fast let down or oversupply. The coughing and the hiccuping come from gulping in lots of air trying to deal with the fast flow and the vomiting is due to the big volume. How is she in herself? Is she generally happy, gaining weight well, peeing and pooing? Reflux generally makes babies quite miserable. Only other thing - has baby been checked for tongue tie?

@AliceW89 thank you!
Actually fast let down had crossed my mind.
She is fine in herself, gaining Weight well, lots of poos and pees!
Sometimes when she's feeding there is milk going everywhere and it just seems too much! I have a breastfeeding group tomorrow so I hope they can help x
