Objective: The study was carried out with the aim to assess infant feeding and weaning practices among Kashmiri rural population. Materials and Methods: The present investigation comprised 85 rural women having their children in the age group of 1-24 months. Samples were selected randomly .Data was analyzed in the form of percentages, mean and standard deviation. Results: Average age of exclusive breast feeding was 9.41±2.32 months.88.23 per cent of mothers fed colostrum to their babies while as 11.77 per cent were of the opinion that it is not good for baby’s health. Only 23.52 per cent considered breast milk as a complete food for their infants. The most common reason for terminating breast feeding was subsequent pregnancy.Upto 4 months of age infants were fed on demand. Cow’s milk or reconstituted milk was introduced by 80 per cent of respondents between the ages of 9-12 months. The foods introduced were chut and biscuits softened in tea, banana, mashed rice with milk, porridge, egg, cerelac and nestum. Conclusion: Breast feeding was a universal practice in rural women. Most of the infants were fed colostrum without knowing its importance. A small percentage of subjects weaned their babies from 4-6 months of age. Hence, mothers need to be educated about the significance of colostrum and introduction of semi- solid foods at an appropriate age. J Med Sci.2009;12(2):46-48

The objective of this study was to document the types of foods introduced to infants before six months of age and identify factors associated with their early introduction. A prospective cohort study of infant feeding for the first six months after birth was undertaken in the city of Chengdu, PR China. The participants were 845 mothers who delivered their infants in hospitals in Chengdu. Mothers were interviewed within 15 days of giving birth and were followed up with for six months. The outcome measures were the introduction of complementary foods to infants within four and six months postpartum. Complementary foods are defined as any food, whether manufactured or locally prepared, used as a complement to breast milk or infant formula. In this study the emphasis was on solids and not liquid foods. More than 94% of the infants were given complementary foods (semi-solid or solid foods) before the age of six months and 10% by four months. The most commonly introduced food was infant cereal, which was given to three quarters of the infants by six months. Multivariate analysis showed that maternal education level was a significant factor affecting the introduction of complementary foods before four months, adjusted odds ratio 2.983 (1.232–7.219), with the more educated mothers introducing complementary foods earlier. More antenatal and postnatal health promotion efforts are required to highlight the benefits of introducing solid foods later than is the current practice in Chengdu, at or close to six months of age. Further education is also required for training health professionals including pediatricians, midwives, and community health staff.
