No need to worry for this 
Give tummy times  frequently  in a day time 
Do massage everyday and specially tummy massage more.

Burp properly at least 10 min or till baby take 4 burp 
Keep hydration well
Baby should pass minimum urine 6-8 times per day 
If baby is feeling discomfort and crying inconsolably  then
