Growth faltering can lead to growth failure. Therefore it is important to investigate growth faltering determinants to solve the growth preblem. This control study was conducted at Kambang subdistric. Kendal district. Cases were the subjects who had growth faltering and controls were the subjects who had normal grwoth. Thrty six subjects were included in each group. The determinant wariables investigated were non-exclusive breasfeeding no-colostrum feeding formula feeding early complementary food feeding pacifier used, diarrhea, upper respiratory tract infections and lack of mother’s allocation time for caretaking Analyses were conducted by bivariate and multivariate regressio. Based on the results of bivariate logistic regression analyses, the determinants og growth faltering were: Non-exclusive breas feeding (OR=3.30; 95% CI:1,15-9.52: PAR = 0.61), formula feeding (OR=2.96: 95% CI: 1.03-8.53 PAR=0.38), earlycomplementary food feeding at ≤ 3 months (OR=16, 95%CI: 1.78-143.15) and upper respiratory tract infections (OR=3.35: 95%CI: 1.23-9.10; PAR 0.61), formula feeding (OR=2.96; 95% CI: 1.03-8.53 PAR=0.36), early complementary food feeding at ≤3 months (OR=16; 95%CI: 1.78-143.15) and upper respiratory tract infection (OR=3.35): 95%CI: 1.23-9.10: PAR=0.48). No – colosastrum feeding pacifier used, diarrhea, and lack of mother’s allocation time for caretaking were not the determinants of growth faltering. Nultivariate logistic regression analyses showed that non-exclusive breasteeding (OR=3.43; 95%CI: 1.15-10.17) and upper respiratory tract infections (OR = 3.09; 95%CI: 1.09-8.73) were the main determiants growth faltering. The main determinant og growth faltering among infants aged 2-6 months at Kangkung sub-district were non-exclusive breasfeeding and upper respiratory tract infections. It is recommended to promote exclusive breast-district were non-exclusive breastfeeding and upper respiratory tract infection.
