When my baby sleeps, I sometimes find her eyes flickering and she makes many funny expressions. Her breathing becomes rapid and then changes to normal. Could she be dreaming?

Your baby has two sleep states - active or light sleep. When she sleeps, they keep shifting from one stage to other. All these changes you mention takes place during these shifts and there is nothing to worry.
