Prevalence of correct knowledge relating to optimal breastfeeding practices at endline, as calculated with a generalised linear model on individual-level data

	Baseline (n=2288)	Endline
		Control group (n=1161)	Intervention group (n=1092)	Risk difference	p value
A mother should start breastfeeding during the first hour after delivery	38·8% (35·3–42·5)	50·3% (43·0–57·6)	76·9% (72·9–80·9)	26·6% (18·4–34·7)	<0·001
A mother should breastfeed exclusively for the first 6 months	51·0% (46·2–55·9)	57·2% (50·1–64·2)	80·3% (76·1–84·6)	23·1% (14·9–31·3)	<0·001
A mother should start to give water or other liquids to her infant after age 6 months	Not collected at baseline	53·9% (45·5–62·3)*	89·9% (85·9–93·9)*	36·0% (27·5–44·5)*	<0·001*
