As strange as it sounds I found standing and sitting and standing again while patting her back gently helped.

Warm bath also help relax the muscles. And honestly massage tummy as much as possible

Having the same issue with my 3 wk old. I’ve started using gas drops (simethicone) in pretty much every bottle and it seems to be helping! He also wasn’t burping very well at first but has been doing better recently. I also do paced bottle feeding so he doesn’t chug it down all at once and use anti-colic bottles so he doesn’t take in much air
