If it is normal formed stool I wouldn't be too concerned even if the frequency of defecation seems increased. If she is having diarrhea there is a little more concern - if she is less than 6 months old it's best to see a vet to determine the cause of the diarrhea. Occasionally diarrhea can be seen as a vaccine reaction but it is fairly rare and parasites and other causes of diarrhea would be more common. If she is older than 6 months, previously healthy, and is not also vomiting or having a decrease in appetite you could try feeding a bland diet for 2-3 days (plain boiled chicken breast mixed with plain white rice is one example) and see if the diarrhea resolves. If it does not you should see your vet.
