Hi Padmaja,
I need some more information like any new food recently introduced? Will she take adequate water intake? Any air hunger is there?
Burping in older children is unusual , some times it may a habit like behavior.
Consult your Pediatrician again if these burping continues for further evaluation.
Hope i have answered your query.

Hi
Thanks for your query,
Belching is expelling gas out of stomach through mouth and it usually cause is distended stomach through swallowed air.
i advise you to avoid gas forming foods ,tell her to eat slowly.
In case her problem persist i advise you to take her to pediatric gastroentrologist.
Your child will be fine,
God bless
