Complementary feeding (MP-ASI) is given when the child is 6 months old, the function of MP-ASI itself is to supplement the nutritional needs of breast milk. WHO recommends giving good and nutritious MP-ASI, by categorizing it according to age, texture, number and frequency.

Statistical test results with 95% confidence intervals indicate that a p-value of 0.007 means that there is a significant relationship between the pattern of giving MP-ASI and nutritional status with an odds ratio (OR) of 4.960 which means that children given with a correct MP-ASI pattern is 4,960 times have higher chance of having a normal nutritional status compared to children who are not given a correct MP-ASI pattern.
