Real thing: No, she does not do it intentionally, or only to get attention. Things like lactose intolerance, acid reflux, constipation etc can cause burping more than usual. Bring her to pediatrician and discus further in detail how to manage. If she continues to burp.Perhaps you can try to change her diet- or perhaps give her medicine for constipation if she has constipation etc.
