WIC will be good for you get even when breastfeeding because it will provide you with healthy necessities (milk, cheese, cereal, juice, etc) and then you'll receive vouchers for baby foods as well, so it would still benefit you to get it.

I get food stamps also so I was wondering should I still do it for the extra help or not. I used to get it with my son since I didn't breastfeed with him @kimberlyyyy

Oh. Sorry, I didn't see your other comment. I guess it would depend on if your family is getting by on food stamps already or if you need the extra help. With everything being so expensive I would say go for both as long as your family can use it all.

I get them both wic and food stamps go for it they will help you with a breast feeding counselor

I think I'll still go ahead and do it. my boyfriend made the valid point saying what if u don't last long as I plan with breastfeeding I should have a back up plan, and yes the extra help will be appreciated because when I think about it we do have a hard time at the end of the month making things stretch @babylanders , @kimberlyyyy
