Could be a case of colic, although the only information I have on the subject is from research -- both my children didn't have it. However, leaving herself almost breathless and with her body shaking could be something else entirely. I would certainly take her to your doctor ASAP. The good news is that if it is colic (excessive gas buildup), it usually goes away between 2-3 months of age. Try to ensure she burps enough after each meal and limit the amount of crying she does in the day as it's believed that colic is caused primarily from inhaling excess air while crying. Good luck.
