I would take your car to a auto store which does alternator and battery tests for free. Also try putting your battery on a slow/trickle charger and make sure it is fully charged. Sometimes when batteries are sold they are low from sitting on the shelf and if the car isn't driven a long distance the battery may be at a very low charge as city driving doesn't give the alt enough time to charge. Also the bad alternator may have also wrecked the battery before you got the new one. However as my brother went through 3 rebuilts on his old 93 ciera before we got the sho within a week. It could also be the alternator but exchanging that would be the last thing I try as it takes the most time and is least likely as ford alternators are better than the gm ones we went through and don't have the design flaws.
