It's normal for babies not to poop this long. If she is happy, playful, you don't need to do anything. But if she cries, strains, you can put glycerine suppository.

Babies can digest mother’s milk 100%. If your baby is active feeding well no vomiting and abdomen is not distended, I would suggest do not worry and enjoy your baby.
