Summary

Using a community-based, cluster randomized controlled trial design (cRCT) the investigators will examine the impact of an integrated "m-health package -(M- SAKHI) for mothers on appropriate infant feeding practices, starting in the first / second trimester of pregnancy to 24 months after delivery, to improve child feeding practices and child growth, and reduce the prevalence of undernutrition in their children. This will result in two treatment groups. The clusters for the trial will be villages under the administrative area of ASHAs (Accreditated Social Health Activists). Villages with a population of 1000- 2000 (ranging from 751 to 2000) with 1 ASHA will be randomized to receive intervention (intervention villages) or continue existing delivery of care (control villages). The data will be collected using a longitudinal design because the investigators want to study the impact of intervention on the mothers starting at pregnancy until her infant is 24 month old.
