Results: Among infants whose growth was monitored for the previous three months, majority (73.1%) had good weight gain while a low proportion (0.6%) had lost weight. About one quarter (26.3%) of the infants had no change in weight. The study findings showed that almost two-thirds (63.8%) of infants who were exclusively breastfed had good weight gain and only 1 (0.6%) was found to have lost weight.
