Stool is not uniform, and bacterial concentration can fluctuate between bowel movements. Additionally, since you have started the antibiotic Taxim O (cefixime), it may already be actively working to clear the infection, which is very reassuring. Please ensure she completes the full course of the antibiotic exactly as prescribed by her doctor, even if she feels better. Keep her well-hydrated with plenty of fluids. If she develops a high fever, persistent vomiting, or blood in her stool, please contact her pediatrician.
