Some babies are fast feeders and tend to swallow lot of air when feeding, more so when fed from a bottle. You could try a slow flow teat and also burp him after feeds. You can also try to feed him with his head in a slight upright position. Does he choke with every feeds since birth? You can also try feeding from a cup instead. Babies can be from a cup safely.
