Priya if you can manage to express milk and give bottled milk till 6 months,then that is the best option . .although. I did start solids when baby was 5 and half months but a soft diet doesn't necessarily fill a baby , so you will need to supplement that with milk

If baby is showing an interest in food you can, but even then for a 6 month baby also soft diet will not suffice. Primary source of nutrition will still remain breast milk. My suggestion would be to start pumping and creating a stash as well as get baby used to expressed breast milk

Hiii priya... babies should be breastfed exclusively for 6months.... u can start soft diet after 6months.... please dont give up on breastfeeding.... for many mothers returning to work shortly after giving birth is a reality, but by pumping aand storing milk while at work a mother can continue to provide her baby with breastmilk as long as she would like....
