She will be fine. Might cause a little constipation but it's not too big a deal if it's only been twice so don't worry
I second the other comment re constipation. A little tip I learnt from my midwife; if you do find she is a little uncomfortable you can try adding a tiny amount of fruit juice (avoid concentrate) to a small amount of water or her milk which will get things moving... It worked a dream for us a few times x x
One off wont harm, but as a regular practice not safe for baby.
She will be fine. Formulas are developed relative to such cases, i think.
