Does anyone know if wic covers kendamil??

I live here in lima ohio. Does anyone know or has gotten like a doctors prescription or note for WIC for kendamil formula and it got approved???? My baby girl is on similac alimentium and sometimes she won't even drink it or the whole thing. I've also noticed sometimes her belly aches from it. I did have her on kendamil classic when I was starting to loose my breast.ilk supply and she did amazing on it. She pooped 2-4 times every day She was extremely calm and happy baby. But it adds up and can be expensive. I know food stamps covers it. But I also have to buy grociers too and not spend most of it on baby formula. Someone please help me. I feel like this similac alimentium isn't doing her good at all. She is peeing and meeting diapers and poops but can go 2 days without pooping. And it's very runny and dark.

They have an app and it tells you what’s covered on there

It’s called wic shopper.

Otherwise you can call your wic office and leave a message (I know ours doesn’t really answer their phones lol I’m in Delaware Ohio) but they do call back.

They don't do Kendamil. I just inquired about all of the milks they offer & it's all Enfamil- infant, reguline, gentle ease, added rice, simply plant based & maybe sensitive I can't remember. They said they don't offer any other provider. The baby milks are not on the app for whatever reason, only the one you're assigned. Baby may can benefit from infant, reguline, gentle ease or sensitive. Good luck

Unfortunately I tried the gentlease and it made her extremely gassy and colicky and she was spitting it up. So I had to go to the alimentium. Ugh Okay well that really sucks then. Kendamil has the most healthiest and best ingredients clean in it from the UK. I even plan on buying one of those steamer and blender all in one to make my own baby purees for my baby girl because like all the lead and whatever God knows that's in the over the counter baby purees like Gerber and stuff. Sorry this world has came to he'll and yeah I fed my.other kids Gerber and stuff and they turned out fine but who knows what's going to happen in the long run. Plus home made baby purees definitely taste a lot better then that nasty jar baby food. I mean I get it for parents who can't afford it. But like I eat veggies to and stuff so some of the things I can home make my baby's first purees is stuff I buy at the grocery store anyways for us. It really comes down to if you have the patience and time to do it yourself really.

When I had to switch my daughters formula her doctor had to "prescribe" it. Your doctor will have a list of formulas they can "prescribe" if you switch they will fax the paperwork to the wic office and you'll have to go in once they have it so they can change it on your card

I was approved for my daughter because she kept vomiting everything back up and her weight wasn't gaining but only the smaller abortions so the doctor approved it to be accepted by wic

I would call your local WIC and ask if they can cover it if doctor writes script. My son is on a special toddler formula that you only get from the pharmacy. WIC cover it
