I would recommend to stock up on canned foods and meat. It will last the longest

I've tried the main food bank the rest I can't get to alone

Food bank?

Nice. Kinda can't wait til she gets here then hopefully they will raise it

Exactly @mcrowell0970

@kayla187 I have called them and they've told me there are no more vouchers available

Could call 211 they offer help with food

Okay good. Try googling churches in your area that does food banks, see if they have any mobile ones, or call and explain that you are pregnant and need help getting it to you? Maybe someone nice can deliver it?

@chamberser I'm on wic

Have you tried applying for WIC? It helps alot and its healthy stuff too, and you can get it until baby is 5 years old. Check into it. Wish you were closer , id give u a ride, i need to go to food pantry myself :/

@cubanese, idk why not I guess it's different in each county and state then

lol I can eat beans a lot though I'm not a picky eater I make anything out of nothing if I have to

Girl i do bean burritos, scramble eggs with beans, beans with chorizo. Bean alone with cheese omg yum. Yes ramen noddles are cheap. @lae1988

@pinkblossom99, beans ramen noodles and get some peanut butter and crackers and bread those things will fill you up

I tried to get WIC when my boys were newborns to help with formula because the stuff they were on was expensive, my husband made $3 to much, I was so angry! It really sucks, Kroger has a lot of awesome coupons on their app, or Aldi is good if you don't mind random food brands, sorry that happened

Girl beans. I swear i cook everything with beans. I know how it is if i don't work we don't eat period.

@cubanese, they will up it once baby is born because the formula can also be bought with food stamps when I was receiving food stamps while I was pregnant with my last baby I was told mine would go up after she was born

@pinkblossom99 we now only get $126 a month but the month of March we will only get $69 and we have not a DROP OF FOOD RIGHT NOW NO LIE

I am trying to think. So you get 149. Is that all your budget for food? Um ahhhh i am trying to think of cheap meals.

Bean, rice,

Have you looked into food trucks and seeing if someone could give you a ride to the food truck

Short essence we have been eating spaghetti since last summer and macaroni and cheese with hamburger in it because that's the cheapest food we can buy. We haven't stopped eating it

@lae1988 I know I just did that because I can't handle anything else to stress me more right now. It's just so wrong that a woman growing a baby can't get the food she needs in her house to grow that baby and keep that baby healthy. The government really needs to Fuck off. I just don't know what else to do. If I could get to a church that has a food pantry I would but then I can't carry it on the bus by myself

Try making things like spaghetti ect.....so that way you will have left overs and won't have to cook everyday.

Now if you have one kid and two adults I don't think that amount sound right idk but the baby doesn't count until the baby is born that's just how they are

If you don't have any other kids and you are pregnant you will have to deal with what your getting once the baby is born the food stamps will go up also why would anyone bash y'all your husband pays taxes right if so he is pretty much paying for your food stamps the only time someone would get bashed is if neither parent is making An attempt to work and as of now your husband is doing what he needs for you and your baby so don't let anyone bash you ever

I just can't keep dealing with everything falling on top of us. I'm sick of never having food. Even when we had $149 we never could get it to go a full month. That was just buying the cheapest food to make like spaghetti and mac n cheese

Churches will help you or maybe if you have a wic office near by I would try them. I'm so sorry your going through this. *hugs

Yes I'm on Wic, but that only goes so far and yes I've tried many times to get a food voucher they just keep telling me there are none available right now

Have you went to churches or programs that offer food boxes?

Do you have a program called WIC available in your area?
