7 week old - too much poop?!

Hi all. Don't know if this will make me overthink more or less but here goes.
My baby is 7 weeks old tomorrow and we have tried all different ways of feeding breast/milk tablets-formula/ready made. We have found that ready made suits her best, she is less grumpy and sicky.
From birth she has soiled nappies very very frequently. She is currently still doing 5-8 a day, not all huge poos but something there. Her poo has the correct colour and consistency, I am just concerned if this is still normal? The HV didn't seem to be too bothered but all I see online is that it should be less. She also poos at nearly every feed she has, will do it whilst feeding.
Anyone else's baby on formula have these kinds of bowel movements or do you think I should speak to HV again? Thanks.
