Good evening mommies!!
Quick question... I'm on WIC and I went in yesterday and asked about a breast pump.. The lady said they do not give them out until the baby is 30 days old...? She said they want me to feed without pumping for the first 30 days of baby's life... When I called and asked my insurance they told me to ask WIC for one... Do I need to have one within the first 30 days? Or just wait it out? Maybe ask my insurance again if we could order one? I'm due July 5th..
It's a CA law that insurance providers are required to pay 100% of one. I got mine already. I will search my email in a moment to see what the website was.
I was only breastfeeding and my baby was always hungry so I bumped and I was only getting an oz from both sides so I would have one just in case cuz my baby wouldn't get full and I didn't know why I had to add formula
I was told that you shouldn't pump for 6 weeks after birth until your supply is established
A Breast Pump and More is the name of the company. Google it. They take care of all of the insurance paperwork! It was a cinch.
