A. It's great that you are planning ahead for your return to work! At 5 months old, your baby may not be ready for solid foods yet, but formula milk can provide all the nutrition they need if you are unable to breastfeed. It's important to talk to your pediatrician about the best feeding plan for your baby's specific needs. You may also consider pumping and expressing milk. Remember, every baby is different and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to feeding. You got this!
