Re: WIC PUSHY WOMEN SOMEONE COUGHT ME

[Guest guest]

My WIC people are incompitant, too! I told them I had the surgery in

february and the pregnancy was a surprise and they still said I should gain 20

pounds. I have learned to just tell them what they want to hear. I have been

dealing with them since I was pregnant with my son who is now 3.5. You learn

after

awhile what it is that they want to hear, and that is what you tell them.

When they asked me if I was gonna nurse I said possibly but most likly not

because I am also worried about the nutrieant thing, and I dont care what anyone

says if I cant get the appropriate calories in then my body can't make for the

baby. My son was formula fed and he has only had 1 ear infection and has had

streap throat once(but even if he were breast fed he strep throat is a viruis

so that dosent count) and he is very smart. I just plan on haveing a happy

baby around and if my baby wants a full tummy, and it happens to be Isomil so be

it!!!! Good luck with your WIC people. Dont let them bully you, and just

remeber that they ARE NOT doctors they are just nutrisionist, and not even all

of

them are that, they just take classes. Have a happy pregnancy.
