WIC covers families up to 185% of the 2026 federal poverty guidelines. For a household of 3 that is about $44,362 per year (roughly $3,697 per month). If you already receive Medicaid, SNAP, or TANF, you meet the income rule automatically. Exact limits vary slightly by state.
Many Medicaid managed-care plans offer a free infant car seat as an extra benefit, often after attending prenatal visits. It is not automatic in every state — call the member services number on the back of your Medicaid card and ask whether they offer a car seat benefit for pregnant members.
Diaper banks give out free diapers, most without checking income. Search the National Diaper Bank Network, call or text 211, or check local Feeding America pantries. WIC does not cover diapers, but SNAP and local programs may help.
