WIC is really pressed on breastfeeding moms. opinions please.

thats exactly how mine is they want me to breastfeed i told them i want to try both cause iam a first time mom and they told me to try atleast for the first weeks iam like i want both

our wic never says anything. they just ask are u planning to breastfeed or formula feed? I said formula feed for all three of mine and they just put in computer. they never questioned me or pushed me

butbyears ago when I had my youngest unwanted to breastfeed and they weren't so happy about it then.

I just dont need two breastpumps. last time I couldn't produce enough I'd like I have formula in case they keep pressuring me. so like last time I was in a bind because I couldn't breastfeed and needed formula. like I said I'll try but geez its like they look at you sideways for even considering formula

I have never even considered not breastfeeding. There's so much important nutrition that babies and toddlers can get only from breast milk.

You have to tell them you're not making enough of milk and they will give you a lot of formula

go to the doctor and get a note for formula they cant say anything after that.

I believe that they push eat too hard. Sometimes you just can't handle it, it's not that you don't want to. Do whatever is comfortable.

try for food stamps...the. wic office here is ridiculous about breastfeeding and keep taking me off of classes...if u dont breasfeed they will just give u a ton of formula vouchers
