It could be normal, especially if she's eaten a big meal recently. If it's anything else there's usually not a whole lot you can do for such little babies. I'm not sure I would try to treat such a young baby with anything but a warm soak in 1/4 inch of 95 degree water in a small Tupperware with a balled up paper towel at the bottom. Fingers crossed that it's nothing!!
