Not an issue.
Urine frequency suggest that feeding intake is proper.
After 3rd week, child becomes active and cries for several reasons like passing urine, wet diapers, colic etc but need not to feed each time for that.
Although feeding (ie sucking movements) cause soothing effect to child
Only if the child has following situations associated with it
-not gaining weight
-fever
-irritable or lethargic
-vomiting

Hello
Good evening
If you are feeling like your baby is urinating frequently she needs quantification of urine output which cannot be done at home.
