Our 7mo twins did this every day, sometimes as much as 3 times a day until they started on solids at 6m.
I asked wise mn and found out the mik I was giving them had pre-biotics in it, which loosen their poos to make it more like breastfed babies poos. They were on Aptamil and Cow & Gate.

Depends on baby, depends on age of baby, and depends on the formula

so is 'mr whippee' like bordering on constipation?

No, it's fine. SMA gives you more like Mr Whippy. Sometimes even more solid than that. Constipation - it'll literally roll off the nappy. Sounds fine...
