Feed as normal and it should sort itself out :) Floaty Bum Syndrome is an everyday part of some axolotls' lives. My Galaxy floats all the time, my Toothless doesn't.

It's not a worrying thing as long as she's not constantly floating or can't reach the bottom. You know your axolotl best, so if she's not displaying unusual behaviours, keeping her food regular will help.

Hi, I was told to feed the axolotl waxworms that it would be easily digested. Hope it will sort itself out

Waxworms, earthworms, maggots - any soft wormy-type food will do. Keep off dried food (pellets), anything with an exoskeleton (mealworms, live shrimp), and fish.
