It's so stressful, you poor love. First of all, just remember that she is brand new and wind is a very common issue when they're so young. You may find that she improves within the next few weeks.
All my babies have suffered bad wind in the beginning. For DS2 Infacol before each feed was an absolute life saver. With DD I discovered that stopping and burping her every 5 minutes during her feeds made the world of difference.
Do you have a dummy? They can really help with wind pain too and may solve the issue where she wants to suck, but too much milk is making the wind worse. Even if you only used a dummy for a week or so (if it works of course) to get you through this stage.
I took my DD to a paediatric chiro last week and three days later her wind issues really settled down. That might be something worth looking into if nothing else works?
You're doing a great job and this phase won't last. I hope you both get some relief soon.
