so I'm 19 weeks pregnant and I want to sign up for wic but I also heard that they make you reapply when your babies come is that true if so it even worth it to apply now if i have to again
Teresha Hollis ·
Not true. You apply for you now then add baby after birth
Erika Bethune·
@teresha_h is it too late for me to apply and how do i add them when the babies come
Teresha Hollis ·
@erikanbethune2 never too late. Just call and set an appointment. I went in days after we were discharged and just added her
Erika Bethune·
@teresha_h oh okay so you have to make an appt to get wic
Teresha Hollis ·
Yes . Do you know which one is close to you?

Call your local WIC drpartment and they'll tell you when to come in. I literally waited till 32 weeks to get it.

@mommytotheo was it worth it what all benefits do u get
Erika Bethune·
@teresha_h i think so I'll have to look it up
Hannah·
@erikanbethune2 you can fruit veggies milk bread stuff like that. And baby gets formula is you formula feed ( you get more food if you breast fed) we stopped going to appointments because they dont offer the formula my son takes
Erika Bethune·
@mommytotheo oh dang I'm having twins so I'm gonna try to breast feed but we will see how it goes

@erikanbethune2 You're welcome every appointment you have you must bring your baby with you they will let you know though an don't forget your I.D, social, proof of address an your paper work for baby from what they give you at the hospital you will need that or they will make you come back an reset an appointment if you don't bring the above.

Hey Ma'am, I know some wic might be different but I would look in to that!!!! All I needed was my Id/Medicaid card, proof of address & income!!!! & When your baby is born he/she must attend the very first wic appointment then you may leave your baby with a family member!!!! So I would definitely ask questions when you make your first appointment!!!! @erikanbethune2
