Birth weight classification across the study arms among pregnant women in Jimma Zone, Southwest Ethiopia.
Furthermore, the finding of ANOVA indicated that neonatal birth weight differed significantly across the arms, F (2, 333) = 7.31, P = 0.001.Likewise, Tukey’s posthoc comparisons of the three groups indicated that neonates born from the husband group (m = 3284.82 g, 95% CI: 3214.25, 3355.38) had significantly higher mean birth weight than the control group (m = 3052.67 gm, 95% CI: 2947.05, 3158.29), P = 0.001. While, comparisons between the peer group (m = 3181.25, 95% CI: 3106.17, 3256.34) and the other two groups were not significantly different. Similarly, the mean neonatal birth weight of difference-in-difference analysis revealed that neonates born from the husband group women were heavier by 232 g as compared to the neonates of the controls (232.14, 95% CI: 189.0, 275.27) p < 0.001(
