Most of what Cathy said is true about WIC.  However, in Ohio we like to
see the newborn breastfed infants as soon as possible both to sign
them up as WIC participants (and issue a coupon with nothing but a
positive breastfeeding message,  if exclusively breastfed) and to offer
breastfeeding support.  In Ohio only those who have been issued a
coupon can be counted as WIC participants.  So even if there is no
formula given a coupon still needs to be generated.
