Colic/reflux or cows milk allergy

Hello my nearly 5 week old is being combination fed. She has had really bad trapped wind for the last week. I am giving her approx 12-15oz of formula in a 24hr period plus breast milk between feeds. She is being fed every 3hrs. She sleeps 5-6hrs at night but just cries all day unless I'm out with her. I am so worried by all the crying she is doing during the day from 12 until bed time at 7pm. I have started her on Gripe water and she is having 1ml 3x a day after the formula feeds which is making her sleepy but seems to help. I'm just at a loss whether this is colic or formula related. I've got an appointment with a private paediatrician next week but not sure if this is something other than the above. She regurgitated more before the Gripe water but this has lessened now.

I'm sorry that you didn't get any replies @Dewintergarden, it's a bit quiet in this section.

How are things with LO now?
