While I was filling out school paperwork this weekend, I noticed that the schools had sent home information on WIC to all of the parents. I was on WIC when I had my first child, and it was a huge help - especially the formula! There are several programs like WIC that offer assistance to mothers once the baby is born, but pre-natal care is just as important. This Pregnant Care card program is designed to ensure mothers-to-be who don’t have insurance, and don’t qualify for Medicaid can pay a reduced rate (negotiated by the large network behind MaternityCard.com) for doctor visits, hospital stays, sonograms, labwork, and more. If you’re paying cash for your pregnancy, this program is worth a look!
