摘要：

This study investigated the practices adopted by mothers in their management of diarrhoea at home. Six health care centres out of ten in Odeda Local Government Area, Ogun State Nigeria were used for the study. A total of 121 mothers participated in the study. Questionnaire were used for data collection. Findings indicate that 100% of the respondents know what diarrhoea means, 57.4% had experienced it with their babies at one time or the other, while 62.6% believed that poor hygiene is the major cause of diarrhoea and 36.6% believed that it is as a result of food allergy and teething. Some mothers (43.5%) manage diarrhoea by using antibiotics and 29.6% of them use herbs.
