if the consistency of the stool is normal that is semi solid to solid there is no need to worry about the frequency of the stool.
the frequency can vary for 4 to 5 times per day and sometimes the child will not pass stool for few days also.
also do no worry about colour and smell of the stool when stool cxonsistency is semisolid to solid.
you have to meet the dr only if it is totally watery stool or it is hard stool or the child is having pain while passing the stool.

Hi mom 
Constipation is common in breast feed babies. If ur baby is active and comfortable otherwise, accepting feeds then no need to worry. 
apply oil on the potty area for easy passing of stool
