  1. Note:aMultivariate logistic regression using the backward elimination method to select significant predictors of low breastfeeding self-efficacy. The variable for the minimum requirement of four antenatal care visits by trimester was selected a priori to be retained in the final model regardless of its significance level. bExposed to intervention refers to respondents living in the intervention sub-districts at the endline survey cNot exposed to intervention referred to all respondents from the baseline survey and those living in the control sub-districts at the endline survey. dMinimum antenatal care refers to the recommendation of at least four antenatal visits, i.e., once in trimester one to three, and twice in trimester three. eHigh level of knowledge was mothers whose total knowledge score was greater than, or equal to the median knowledge score value. fLow level of knowledge was mothers whose total knowledge score was less than the median knowledge score value
