Did you spill any of the antifreeze inside the engine bay when you changed the water pump or when you refilled the radiator?
yeah,some got on the front of the engine when i pulled the old water pump off,and of course on the radiator when i purged the air out of the system

You might be "burning off" the excess coolant that spilled when you changed it.
Keep checking for leaks just to make sure.
