N2  - Low birth weight is a major health problem and a significant contributor to neonatal  death in both industrialized and developing countries (Deshpande Jayant, et al., 2011).  Tripathy, (2014) reported that the global prevalence of LBW is 17%, which means that about  25 million neonates worldwide, such neonates are born each year, and the WHO/UNICEF  (2014) stated that 96.5% of them in developing countries and about 219 (22%) in every 1000  neonates in Egypt is born with LBW each year. Low birth weight contributes to 60% to 80%  of peri-natal mortality and up to half of infant mortality. Teklehaimanot, Hailu, and Assefa,  (2014) reported that LBW neonates usually need extra hospital care, and there is a constant  concern and uncertainty over future health outcomes. Neonatal intensive care for these  neonates is ranked the most costly of all hospitalization costs
