Hi
I am trying to compute median duration of any breastfeeding for last born child under three years from NFHS 4 data for India, I have followed WHO document for Indicators for assessing infant and young child feeding practices, Annex 5 Instructions for calculating duration of breastfeeding, pg 78, but my result is coming very different from report, I have taken m4 variable to compute currently breastfeeding, looking for input.

Thanks
Radhika
