A. you can take care of babies nutrition requirements and continue to exclusively breastfeed till 6 months complete, with little motivation from your side. breastfeed baby before going to work and after coming back continue night feeds while at work caregiver can feed expressed breast milk to your child with preferably katori and spoon.
