Default is it time for a new slave cylinder?

I got a new clutch put in and the pedal was firm for about a month, then it gradually got mushy, so i thought maybe some air got in the line, so i rebled it again and the clutch pedal still feels soft, if i were to buy a new slave cylinder would that firm up the pedal?

Look and see if you are leaking fluid from front of slave cylinder. Make sure when you bleed it that the bleeder screw it at highest point of cylinder at 45 degree angle.

nothing is leaking and that is exactly how i bled, so i am not sure whas wrong. The clutch and everything grabs fine so maybe the clutch pedal is suppose to be a little softer like this.
