If she is not crying while passing, there is no need to worry. Passing motions frequently at this age is quite common and normal. But please give a balanced diet with fruits and vegetables especially raw as they have fiber. Avoid maida foods like biscuits, wafers, bakery foods and chocolates. Do not worry unless the child has symptoms.

If stool is soft and no straining , make dietary changes.
More Fibre, more liquids. Less packaged food products and restrict milk.
