Baby's stomach

My new baby (she's 19 days' old) has feeds (formula) every 3 or 4 hours. She's currently drinking 120ml over a 45 minute feed. I noticed that her stomach is very big after each feed and am quite concerned. Is a baby's stomach/waist usually bigger (about 1.5 times the size her upper body) than usual?
 
Many thanks for your advice. Really appreciate it. It is really worrying as being a first-time mother, I am really quite stressed out as my baby does not seem to be sleeping well. Thanks so much for your reassurance!
