Thanks for the codes, it was very helpful.

From the BDHS 2014 report,it is already mentioned that infant feeding information were only collected from the youngest child of the respondent. I assume, then for the other children it will be missing by default, as there is no data.

Then why do we need to select the youngest child living with mother between the age of 6-23 months, and do the analysis?

I am currently working with SAS, Do you have the SAS codes of the following command? It will be very helpful.


keep if b9==0
sort for the merge later
sort v001 v002 v003 bidx
save temp.dta, replace

*finding the youngest child for each mother
collapse (min) bidx, by(v001 v002 v003)
sort v001 v002 v003 bidx
merge v001 v002 v003 bidx using temp.dta

gen ageC=v008-b3
keep if ageC>=6 & ageC<=23

keep if _merge==3
drop _merge

Thanks,
Ishra
