WIC Formula

I give the smurf up on breastfeeding.
Since I'm on WIC I figure it'll be best to get whatever formula they're going to give us, but I'm not sure if all WIC offices use the same formula? Or does the brand vary from region to region?

Brand varies. When I had WIC they gave similac I think when we moved to CA it was Enfamil I never got set up on it though. I know some its gerber.

the brand varies.Here its gerber. however my son wouldnt tolerate gerber, so with a pediatrician note we got enfamil's nutramigen.

It varies state to state.

Here they give wic recipients similac unless another kind is prescribed by a doctor.

It varies but if your baby needs something different you can get a Rx from your pedi and then he can get whatever he needs

Will it bother her too badly to switch to whatever brand they give when I go in a week? I have some Similac here the hospital sent us home with yesterday that I can give her when I run out of pumped milk.

honestly, we started out getting the regular Enfamil, then we talked to them about it making DS sick, so they started him on Goodstart (the one that is easy on baby's tummy... can't remember what it was called...) I think you can request whatever formula you want to use.

certainly you shouldn't have to pay with your own money to feed your own kids lol

WTF kind of comment is that.

That's what I thought! O.o I mean, we shouldn't have to need help to support our children, right?? O.o lol
