Another question on absence for green card holder

I'm 4.5 year LPR and been out of US 4 times in 2002.
Fist time for 7 days, 4, 58 and 139, total: 208.
Do I already have a problem applying for citizenship?

You do not have a problem meeting the physical presence requirement, nor the
continuous resident requirement. You may not apply for naturalization until
you have been an LRP for 4 years and 9 months. An application filed sooner
than that will be rejected at the interview, if not sooner.
