WIC question

[ohalie]

Hi, I'm going to my first WIC appointment tomorrow, do y'all know if I'll be getting some food money tomorrow? My mom thinks I will. My concern is that I wanted to grocery shopping tonight, and I dont want to buy stuff that I'll get free tomorrow.

Here I ger 36 oz worth of cereal, 1 dozen of eggs,3 gallongs on milk, half of a gallon of milk, a quart of milk, 16 oz of cheese it could be mozzarella or american deluxe,  3 bottles of 48 oz of juice apple juice or concentrate juice, wheat bread and $10 worth of fruits and or veggies. That's about it.

I got mine that very day. I live in Oregon and alls they needed was proof of pregnancy. They didn't even need a blood test or a paper from my doctor they excepted my ultrasound picture from when I found out what I was having that had my name printed at the top along with what hospital. I met with a lady that worked there and then got my coupons or whatever there called for the next three months cuz here you get three months worth each time.

I got on WIC when I was pregnant with my daughter. She is now 3 so its been awhile for me. But if I recall right I went to my first appointment where I actually had to take a class about health and nutrition. And then I also had to get weighed and height, the basic stuff.
I had to go back for a second appointment to do a follow up and then I got WIC. But this was over 3 years ago.

Well when I went I did get wic.. 10$ for fruits,.. they also checked my weight height and iron.. so it depends

You'll get gallons of milk, a few dollars of fruits and veggies(10$ is what I get and that's the max), juice, peanut butter, eggs, bread, cheese, and that's it. It's not there to support you, it's there to assist you.

Um when I went in for my first they gave me some like 4 only though because I had to bring in my blood test for my doctor. But that's here in California. And I think the date to use them wasn't until a week after I got them.I don't remember. But you should be getting a months worth at least tomorrow :)

If u have medicaid they will accept u thats same day and if u dont I think it takes a while to process

[rebeccaann11]

I think it would very place to place. Here in Oklahoma I didn't get mine the first appointment....
I don't think anyways
