No it’s perfectly normal. Colour of stool depends on transit time of food in gut. If baby is passing frequent stools it will be green. Normal babies pass 8-10 stools per day and mostly just after feeds. Normal frequency of motion for babies is once in 3-5 days to 10-15 times in a day.
Your baby is perfectly normal. Continue exclusive breastfeed but give Vit D 3 supplementation (400IU / day)
