my stockpile of formula from samples and wic, i will post my stockpile of diapers later on (wic did not pay for diapers)

Quoting daydreamer86:
Yep. They know I breastfeed but give me checks just in case. Lol. I get 32 jars of food and 3 boxes of cereal. He doesn't eat the oatmeal often and he's bored with the same ole jars of food. It's enough though. He's 10 months so he's on table food and jar.
Quoting kathislove80:
They don't give me formula. They give me extra food for breastfeeding. Do you exclusively BF?
Quoting daydreamer86:
Wic gives me formula even though I breastfeed. I donated 30+ cans the other day
I am fairly certain that is not what WIC was intended for........
WIC is supposed to supplement-not provide you with something you will never use. What a waste. Remind me to not support that effort anymore.
Well, here, they cut you off on food for mom when baby is one year old.
Quoting daydreamer86:
Just food for baby. They cut moms food off at 6 months for nursing moms. I'll start getting the usual stuff when ds is 1
Quoting mollysmom328:
Are you still getting the extra food for breastfeeding? All of it and not just the supplementing with formula package?

I have so much babyfood and my baby wants nothing to do with it. He'll eat it now and again but he just wants my food. I must have 80+ jars

This is how it is with Markus! 7.5 months old and he does not want to be spoon fed. He hates anything he cant feed himself and chew. So I gave all the food I had to a friend of mine whose baby loves the jarred foods.

yes i did know this, but thank you. i was just meaning that i have several cans and dont even go through one in a month, so i can use just one can per month. and not have to buy more for a while... as it is i did buy one big package (more for the bottle that came with, and more than half of that package is going to go in the trash. :? i dont plan on opening any more bigger cans anytime soon.
Quoting PTK11:Just in case you didn't know (since you're implying that 2 sample cans will last you a few months) powdered formua is only good for 30 days after opening.
Quoting j.mom.07:for those that have had to pay a lot and buy a lot of formula, you can call the company for whatever formula you use (or all if you dont have a specific one you like , and ask for samples and they will send you a can, or yu can go to their website and request a sample. i just got 2 different cans of similac in the mail yesterday! one is sensitive the other is the blue one. i barely ever use formula to supplement, so due to samples and such i shouldnt have to buy formula for a few months atleast. :) hope this helps. :)
