520			_aSummary: The study determined the infant and young child feeding practices of mothers in Naga City, Cebu. It ascertained the profile of the respondents pertaining to age, educational attainment, monthly family income, employment status, and the feeding history of their children. The study utilized the descriptive method involving 330 respondents in five districts of the City of Naga, Cebu. A researcher made questionnaire translated in Cebuano was used in data collection. The findings of the study suggested that majority of the respondents are between 22 and 27 years old with an average age of 26.06 years, high school level, with an average monthly family income of between 5,001 and 10,000 and currently not employed. A high number of infants and young children were initiated breastfeeding immediately after birth. Furthermore, nearly all respondents did not practice exclusive breastfeeding, however, a considerable number of respondents continue to breastfeed after six months. Plain water, vitamins or medicines and clear broth topped the list of liquids introduced by the respondents, while vitamin A-rich vegetables, foods rich in carbohydrates and iodine-rich foods ranked first, second and third respectively in the list of solid foods for complementary feeding. Most of the respondents did not introduce products that are fortified with iron. Breastfeeding practices in rural areas lack knowledge of the importance of iron-fortified complementary feeding as well as exclusive breastfeeding.
