FF & fussy baby

My 3 week old is sometimes really fussy with the bottle. He will be hungry but when feeding will move his head back as if he has had enough, so I take have bottle away but he is still hungry so continue to feed.
However it is really hard trying to feed him when he is doing this & he also seems uncomfortable at times, trying to stretch out, grunting & making sounds as if he is trying to clear his throat.
Is this wind, reflux, something else or just what babies do? and what can I do? He isn't like it every feed but when he is it takes ages to feed.
We are using tommy tippee bottles, size 1 teats.

All seems pretty normal. Try winding him when he does this and have a google of paced bottle feeding Smile
