Not unusual: It is important to have that 1st poop as that verifies that the system is open. After that a breast fed infant may poop a small smear every feed or fill a cradle once a week. Formula kids usually poop more. If it is soft when they go it is not constipation. If he's feeding well he sounds normal.
