It's take some time for antibiotic to act full (after 2-3 days) so yes it's dysentery (infection in stool) and you already started antibiotic, continue antibiotic and other medications which is prescribed. Give ors and zinc and more mother's milk.
Next Steps
if symptoms persist consult Pediatrician.
