I travel alot so sometimes the car sits for weeks at at time.. but i have had to add oil about 4 times already, is this normal?

i've had a couple of m3's, a 2008 m5 and a 2010 m6.. none of them drank oil like this.. should i be concerned. BTW my car was affected by the oil pump recall
I am in the same boat. Had to go to the dealer four times for oil. Just under 5k miles. I too am concerned about the oil consumption.
