Normal gas vs reflux.

Hi ladies. I scanned all the previous posts on this and am not sure. She doesn't seem as bad as those babies on meds.
During the day, LO is perfectly fine, burps well, falls asleep in the boob, etc.
however, the past two days she has been pretty bad at night. Her middle of the night feeding has turned into a 2 hour debacle because she's so fussy and won't go back to sleep, I also spend about 40 min trying to get her to burp (when she's not super fussy she'll burp pretty much right away). No matter what at night and first thing in the morning she'll spit up, sometimes a lot sometimes a little, while I'm trying to burp her. You can also tell how she's kicking she's trying to push stuff out the other end.
Like I said it doesn't seem as bad as what other ppl have mentioned. Once she's down she'll sleep at night from 2 hours to 4. Last night she was screaming at the top of her lungs after a feed and diaper change, DH took over and said she spit up and then calmed right down.
Do u think it warrants calling the doc? Or just wait till our next visit (next Friday)? I just don't know if this is normal grassiness or more and don't want to be that mom that calls over every little thing.

Re: Normal gas vs reflux.
I'm mobile, how old is LO? It kind of sounds like how J acts when he cluster feeds. Have you offered the boob again, even if it seems waayyy too soon?
Reflux usually they arch their back
If you're ever concerned there's no shame in calling!
Eta have you tried gas drops (simethecone) after her last feed prior to the trouble feed?
Eta x2 sounds normal to me... reflux is usually an all day thing unless she is sleeping at a different angle at that time compared to during the day
My cat can read EKGs, can your human do that?

My baby has driven me nuts doing similar things. Then I get the hang of what to expect And he stops doing it And starts doing something else that worries me
