Vomiting after feeding

Question

Asked for Female, 29 Years

Hi My daughter, 17 day old, vomits once after feed during the night. I am bottle feeding her by expressing my milk during the day as she has latching issues. At night i give her NanPro(3-4 times). She takes 50-60ml per feeding(breastmilk and formula). Also she is crying a lot at night since 2 days. During the day she easily takes the milk without vomiting but from 2 days she is puking milk at night even after burping. She is on medications- Zincovit and Ostocalcium since my discharge from hospital. Her medicines are for 30 days. Please guide if i should take her to a pediatrician. I am really worried.
