During the federal government shutdown, there will be no immediate impact on Missouri WIC families. Missouri WIC families should continue to attend appointments and shop with their WIC cards until further notice. We will post any additional information here and at WIC.Mo.Gov.

A Cochrane review determined that breastfeeding before and during vaccination injections helped to reduce pain in most babies up to the age of one year?

Results showed that breastfeeding reduced crying in babies having vaccinations. On average, breastfed babies cried for 38 seconds less than babies who were not breastfed, and pain scores were significantly lower too.

Similarly breastfeeding during blood tests in newborn babies reduces pain, and it’s likely has similar results for older babies too.

Breastfeeding is a useful tool for breastfeeding parents and babies for so many reasons, not least when it comes to unpleasant procedures; where possible breastfeeding through these can make the whole experience more bearable for both parties.
