In Ghana, the Demographic and Health Survey of 2014 reports rates of stunting, wasting and underweight in children aged 0-59 months are 28%, 14% and 9% respectively. Furthermore, height for age starts dropping from age 4-6 months with children aged 6-23 months being more likely to be stunted (40%) than those below 6 months (4%). Infant and young child feeding data show that for breast-fed children ranging from 6 months through 35 months of age, cereals are predominantly the first foods introduced in the diet (6-8 months of age). As the child grows older, consumption of fruits rich in Vitamin A, other fruits and vegetables and meat, fish, poultry and eggs are reported by the mothers. The Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) found that the proportion of breast fed children aged 6-23 months who received a recommended variety of foods the minimum number of times per day increases with child's age from 28% in children 6-8 months to 50% in children aged 18-23 months.
