Dear User,
V136 Total number of household members is the number of usual residents plus the number of visitors who slept in the house the previous night that were listed in the household schedule. (for this variable, members in the household listing could be visitors who spent the night or usual residents or both. If they are visitors and did not spend the night, they do not make it into the roster. All the people who make it into this variable are supposed to be there.
V137 (de jure children only, usual residents children)
Number of children resident in the household and aged 5 and under. Visiting children are not included. These would be the "0" in V137

Thank you for your post.
