Hubungan Praktik Pemberian Makanan Pendamping Asi Pada Anak Dengan Kejadian Stunting
Complementary feeding is aimed to provide children with
nutritious foods and drinks other than breast milk to help them grow well and to
prevent them from nutrition problems. Inappropriate complementary feeding will
lead to malnutrition, which is a major factor of stunting among children. The
purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between complementary
feeding practice and stunting among children. Methodology: This study applied
cross sectional approach. The samples for this study were 150 mothers with
children aged 6-24 months, who were selected using purposive sampling method.
The data were collected using questionnaire regarding complementary feeding
practice, completed with the data of children’s body length provided by
Puskesmas (Community Health Centre) Rejosari. Results: The results of the
study showed that there was a correlation between the age of the complementary
feeding (p=0,006) with stunting, while other factors of frequency (p=0,815),
texture (p=0,681), amount (p=0,695), and nutrition (p=0,374) showed no
correlations. Conclution: It is suggested that complementary feeding for breastfed
children should consider the age of feeding in the order to reduce the risk of
stunting.
Key words : Complementary Feeding, age, frequency, nutrition, texture, amount,
stunting, children.
