Using the attached code I have successfully coded other background variables. Now am having trouble with maternal variables eg education. which variable should I use for mothers education.

lab val birthreg birthreg
svy:tab birthreg
tab birthreg[iweight=wt]


***Mother's highest educational level
recode v106 (0=0)(1=1)(2=2)(3=3) if hv102==1 & hv105<5, gen(Mothereducation222)
label var Mothereducation222 "Mother's highest educational level"
lab def Mothereducation2 0 "No education" 1 "Primary" 2 "Secondary" 3 "Higher"
lab val Mothereducation2 Mothereducation2
