Passing stools daily is not important at this age,the consistency is.
Babies till 3-4 months of age can pass 10-12 motions a day OR pass a motion after every 3-4 days.
If stools are soft and formed,and not accompanied by any other symptoms like vomiting or abdominal distension or dullness and refusal to feed,relax!
Just ensure breastfeeding at regular intervals and burping for 10 mins after every feed,also maintain hygiene.
