Yes we get it in Texas. We stopped messing with it for our toddler fd because she had to get her finger pricked for iron count each time and she didn't like it. But I would definitely do it for babies. The formula gets very costly. My dh didn't want to do it because he didn't think 'we' needed wellfare. Our Dr. talked him into it, told him the children qualify and there is no reason to be too proud to get it for them. I hate turning over the coupons and then getting into a $40,000 van because I figure people will just figure I'm abusing the system! But I recently found out that there is a place in our town that has a drive through service for WIC purchases. It's next door to one of our WIC offices. I think this will help a lot because I was never sure what brands of food qualify for the program.
