Abstract: The purpose of this study to determine and then to compare the baby feeding practices of the mothers who live in rapidly developing Yiwu city in China and in Mus a province in Turkey that shows steady development rate. The 120 Turkish and 120 Chinese mothers in the study were selected among those who are rural originated but had moved out to both cities in the last 5 years. A 8 items questionnaire has been prepared from the literature reviewed for this study. Data were collected by face-to-face interviews. Chi-Square test, mean, frequency and percentage were used for compare the two groups results. There weren’t any statistical significant differences between Turkish and Chinese mothers in terms of nourishment during the pregnancy, early feeding practices and duration of breastfeeding data. About 842% of Turkish and 617% of Chinese mother had give breast milk their children as first nutrients. 788% of Turkish and 42% of Chinese mothers had continued to exclusive breastfeeding in the next six months after birth. Chinese mothers (875%) usually stop the nursing between 6-12 months and Turkish mothers (592%) stop nursing mainly between 10-24 months of baby life. These findings support the claim that because of Mus mothers are less sensitive to external influences and that stick on their practices affects positively their practices of baby feedings. Contrary to this, it’s thought that the new trends which are brought by rapid industrialization and needs rapid and a new life style affects the baby feeding practices negatively.
