I am scrambling to collect all of our receipts to get reimbursed through FSA and am running into some questions. I had thought that over the counter baby meds were reimburseable, but they are not as of 2012.. So now I am looking into lactation supplies, such as breast milk storage bags. Does anyone know if I had to purchase a certain brand for it to be reimbursed, or can I submit receipts for any brand? I am trying to figure out how to make sure and get all our money back!

if you can get your dr to write you prescriptions for over the counter drugs, you can get reimbursed! I had my midwife write a prescriptions for all of my prenatals and we got reimbursed which was great because my prenatals were $30/mo!

@Mrs. Pen: thanks! You're right. I have been looking into this more to see what qualifies, and i think i have found enough stuff to get reimbursed this year (like saline solution!). my lesson learned is to not wait until years end to do this, and also to know more about what qualifies in advance in order to request prescriptions , like you suggest.
