Newborns can pass motion even 6-8 times in a day or they cannot pass motion even for a week to 10days. It is normal. Hope you are feeding your baby every 2-3 hourly and continue the same. I don't think she needs any medicine for this. But , being a newborn...it's better to get her examined once to make sure everything is normal on examination.
