Hi!
I am using the last DHS in honduras, I am trying to create the outcome variable for my analysis (stillbirth) in STATA. The only way to obtain this is by merging v228 (ever had a pregnancy loss or stillbirth)and months of gestation at pregnancy loss (v233). Among those who said yes to this question (v228), I need to select only the ones with a pregnancy loss of over 4 months of gestation (I can take this info from the variable v233). Therefore I need to get a new variable that includes those "yes" pregnancy loss from v228 but restricted to those with > 4 months (from v233), compared to those who said "no" to v228 or pregnancy loss. What is the right way to merge these two variables?

Many thanks
