dc.description.abstract	Early introduction of formula milks during infancy is one of the major changes that have been observed in the infant feeding patterns1 of both developed and developing, countries. A community based study of infants in urban, town and rural sectors of Sri Lanka indicates that the early introduction of formula milks is a common phenomenon, specially in urban areas. The importance of urban residence, higher educational level of the mother and employment of the mother outside the home are the factors favouring early introduction of formula milks.	en_US
