The golden period of extraordinary child development occurs from 0 to 2 years old. Mother's nutritional status, food priority, duration of exclusive breastfeeding, not eating meat and repeated episodes of diarrhea are variables that determine the occurrence of stunting in children aged 6-59 months. After the baby is born, breast milk is the ideal first meal for babies with very adequate nutritional content for up to 6 months and then continued for up to 24 months with complementary foods (MP-ASI). This study aimed to determine the relationship between early complementary breastfeeding and the incidence of stunting in children aged 6-59 months at Posyandu, East Jakarta. The research design used was descriptive analytics by collecting primary data and observations which were conducted in August 2022. The research sample was taken by purposive sampling at aged 1-5 years with a total of 107 toddlers. Data would be analyzed using the Chi-Square test. This study’s results indicate a significant relationship between early MP-ASI and stunting with a p-value = 0.001. The period of growth and development apart from the physical and mental of the child's brain must also be considered. If a child has nutritional problems such as insufficient nutrition, it can cause developmental delays such as stunting.
