If your baby is active and is feeding well then due to excess gas baby do this backarching and stretching because it makes them release gas.
if it persists and u see some other symptoms consider getting a physical examination done.
Next Steps
Do burping for 15-20min, check the dilution of formula feed either too diluted or concentrated will also make excess gas. try changing the formula you are giving.
i would suggest you to get lactational expert advice for latch issue.
