It's normal for a newborn baby to have gas. You have to burp the child after feeding often. As long as he is passing gas, don't worry.
Next Steps
If his stomach looks distended, vomits feeds and he is irritable, then that means that he has gas trouble..
Health Tips
Feeding pattern is good, please continue this
