Dear DHS experts,

I'm taking my first steps on data managment and I'd be really thankful if you could help me solve a doubt I'm having for quite long.

I'm researching in maternal care and I'm trying to know how many women delivered their last child in the last 3-5 years. Is it correct that this information is represented by the variable "midx_1" from the IR dataset?

And if someone has experience with Stata:
-By putting "tab midx_1 if b5_01==1" can I interprete that as the number of whomen, who delivered their last children alive?


Thank you in advice.

Best regards
