May be normal.: If she is sucking vigorously that may happen. If she is breathing normally afterward and in between feeds, she is probably fine. However, if you see any blueness of her lips or the breathing remains fast, I would recommend calling her local doctor. If you are unsure, it would be best to do that anyway.
