Complementary food for ASI (MP-ASI) is food or drink that contains nutrients, which is given to infants to meet nutritional needs other than breast milk. Complementary food for breastfeeding given to infants must contain sufficient micronutrients to meet needs that are not met by breast milk alone. But until now the provision of MP-ASI to babies less than 6 months in Indonesia is still a health problem that needs attention, because there are still many mothers who give solid food to babies before the baby is 6 months old (Heryanto, 2017). According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2017, only about 40% of babies aged 0-6 months worldwide are exclusively breastfed, while 60% of other babies have received MP-ASI when they are less than 6 months old. This illustrates that exclusive breastfeeding is still low, while the practice of giving MP-ASI in various countries is still high. The data based on the 2018 Basic Health Research (RISKESDAS) shows 37.3% of babies aged 0-5 months get exclusive breastfeeding, 9.3% get partial breastfeeding and 3.3% get predominant breastfeeding. Predominant breastfeeding is a pattern of breastfeeding where the baby besides getting breast milk is also given a little water. Partial breastfeeding is a pattern of breastfeeding where the baby besides getting breast milk is also given artificial food such as formula milk, porridge or other food before the baby is exactly 6 months old which is given continuously or always given breast milk (prelacteal). The prelacteal food most often given to newborns is formula milk (79.8%) (Ministry of Health RI, 2018).

Introduction: Exclusive breastfeeding is a global strategy to improve the growth, development, health and survival of babies. One effort to increase breast milk supply is by improving the quality of food which has a direct effect on milk production, namely katuk leaves. Objective: aims to determine the effect of katuk leaf extract on the adequacy of breast milk production in post partum mothers at Midwife Misniarti. Method: This research is a quasi experiment with a two group posttest only design. This research method is a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design. The sample in this study was 30 people consisting of 15 experimental groups and 15 control groups. Data collection uses an observation sheet. Univariate analysis uses central tendency distribution and bivariate analysis uses paired t test. The results showed that the mean sufficiency of breast milk in the experimental group before giving katuk leaves was 6.80 and after giving katuk leaves was 8.47. The conclusion is that giving katuk leaves has proven to be effective for the adequacy of breast milk (ASI) in breastfeeding mothers.

Early breastfeeding (ASI) in the first days of birth provides many benefits where there is colostrum which is proven to be very rich in antibodies which can increase the baby's immunity. Prelacteal food is given to babies in the first days after birth on the grounds that breast milk (ASI) has not been released so that the first days after birth are a vulnerable period for babies to receive prelacteal food/drinks. Prelacteal foods are dangerous because they can replace colostrum as the baby's earliest food. The impact of prelacteal feeding is that babies may get diarrhea, septicemia (bacterial infection in the blood), and meningitis, babies are more likely to suffer from intolerance to the protein in the formula, and develop allergies such as eczema. Method: this activity begins with the preparation of proposals and administration activities in May 2023. The implementation of this activity is educating mothers about prelacteal feeding to babies aged 0-6 months.

Stunting is a condition of growth failure in infants that occurs during a critical period of the process of growth and development in the womb and during the initial period after the baby is born. It is not only affected the physical growth of the baby but also the brain. The purpose of this research was to determine the factors associated with the stunting prevalence among the children under five years old of age in Jetis 1 Primary Health Care Center, Bantul. The research method is quantitative, case control research design with retrospective approach. The data analysis methods were chi-square and logistic regression. The results of this research were some factors could be associated with stunting prevalence. The factors were the history of exclusive breastfeeding (p: 0.037 or: 0.253) and the nutritional status of the mother during pregnancy (p: 0.001 or: 5.634). Meanwhile, gender (p: 0.153), history of birth weight (p: 0.677) and mother's education (p: 0.127) were found to have no relationship with stunting prevalence. It is expected that the mothers of children under five years old can prepare for pregnancy in the future by calculating nutritional intake before and during pregnancy and provide exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months.

Indonesia is still facing major challenges in the field of nutrition. Lack of nutritional intake is a type of nutritional problem that can cause disturbances in the growth and development of children, so efforts are needed to be made to overcome them. Specific nutrition interventions have been shown to reduce nutritional problems through supplementation and fortification interventions, supporting exclusive breastfeeding, counseling about children's diets, and providing additional food. This study aims to identify specific interventions that have been carried out in addressing under-five nutritional problems using qualitative methods using non-probability sampling techniques. Data was collected through in-depth interviews. The results showed specific nutrition interventions, namely toddler interventions (monitoring toddlers at posyandu, immunization, vitamin A, and PMT). Maternal intervention (pregnancy women's classes, PMT for pregnant women, nutrition and health seminars) and youth interventions (blood-boosting tablets/TTD program).
