Background: neonatal weight loss in the first few days of life is a common phenomenon yet limited information about weight loss after birth is available. objectives: the present study aimed at determining associated factors with neonatal weight loss after birth in newborns. methods: in this cross-sectional study, the sample included 982 healthy, term and singleton newborns that had referred to health centers of ilam. the mother and neonate’s demographic characteristics, and the mother’s pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum data were collected by a questionnaire. the data was analyzed using univariate and multivariate statistical analysis using the spss software. results: the mean nwl 3 to 5 days after birth was 129 ± 92 grams. infants had lost 4.04 ± 3.19% of their birthweight. the results of multivariate analysis (logistic regression) showed that breastfeeding (or = 7.228, ci: 4.707 - 11.099), cesarean section (or = 4.429, ci: 3.166 - 6.196), female gender (or = 3.080, ci: 2.201 - 4.309), mother’s no experience of breast feeding (or = 2.831, ci: 1.817 - 4.409), weighting more than 4000 grams (or = 2.464, ci: 1.034 - 5.870) and jaundice (or = 1.486, ci: 1.035 - 2.133) were amongst risk factors for neonatal weight loss (nwl) of more than 5%, while risk factors fornwlof more than 7% included only breastfeeding (or = 2.904, ci: 1.759 - 4.796), cesarean section (or = 2.073, ci: 1.423 - 3.019), and female gender (or = 1.850, ci: 1.254 - 2.730). conclusions: the study findings revealed that breastfeeding and cesarean section are the strongest predictors of nwl. therefore, it is necessary for infant-friendly hospitals to come up with strategies to reduce the rate of cesarean section and establish successful breastfeeding before mothers are discharged.
