WIC helps out. I get 6 gallons of milk, 36 ounces of cereal (3 12oz boxes), 2 pounds of cheese, 16 oz jar of peanut butter/or a bag of dry beans, and 4 things of juice each month. There may be more but this is all I can think of off the top of my head. But beleive me it helps out alot!



I get pregnancy medicaid and what my insurance dont cover, the medicaid is used as secondary!!! It really helps out alot!!!!I also get WIC as well. I signed up when I was around 5 weeks. I am not sure if it is the same where you are but where I am, I get some of the cereal and if you eat grits, it is considered a "hot" cereal so I can get that as well... just an fyi if you didnt know.... But it does come in handy expecially the cheese and milk. I LOVE cheese!!


yeah I know about the grits but I don't eat them enough. Do you know if NC provides a breast pump to mothers who breastfeed? I've heard that some states do. What part of NC are you from?



oh ok... I am not sure.. I think here they might provide you with a manual one. I live in Raleigh.
