Exclusively Breastfeeding Mom and Infant
Exclusively breastfeeding is the healthiest choice for you and your baby and the exclusively breastfeeding package provides the best dollar value as well.
Because exclusively breastfed babies do not get any formula, WIC will give you and your baby more food. You will also receive breastfeeding support throughout your baby’s first year. We encourage you to choose this food package for at least the first month to build and protect your milk supply.
