چکیده انگلیسی
Risky feeding practices such as giving prelacteals (55.0%) or supplementary feeds (71.3%), or delaying first feed (30.9%) were common. During the neonatal period, breast milk was the preferred feed (98.6%); however, honey (28.7%), ghutti (27.8%) and water (11.8%) were also given in order to 'reduce colic' or 'act as a laxative', which were perceived health benefits mentioned by mothers and traditional birth attendants. Ethnicity and birth attendant at delivery were strong predictors for women who gave prelacteals (after adjusting for education, socioeconomic status and facility delivery). Although administration of colostrum as the first feed was relatively common in this setting, the predominance of other risky traditional newborn care practices stresses the need for promoting health education programs on improving newborn care practices.
