Wic...need More Formula..?? Posted: 08-12-04 13:33pm
Okay, wic gives me 9 cans of the powder
similac advance w/ iron, but im on my 11th
can already and its been 23 days... So I
will still have to buy a good bit more
since I cant get any more till the
22nd...Is there a way I can get more...Do
I have to wait until my vouchers run out
before they'll change it..Or will they
even do that? Anyone else had this
problem b4? Did u have to buy or did they
compensate for u?

The will usually give you more if they
think its an emergency. But try getting a
breast pump, and pumping up milk and
putting it in the freezer to save it, and
when you go to make a bottle, try doing
half breast milk and the other half
formula and milk. You should really save
on formula that way, and you'll probably
start to have some left over. But for now
call your wic office and tell them.

My wic office told me that more than
likely you'll end up buying some formula.
That they provide you with enough
according to there standards but all
babies r different. ~ erica.
