Hello,

The information you need for the migrant variables are in the PR file (individual level file) and the pregnancy outcome variables are in the IR file (also an individual level variable). Therefore you do not need to change wide to long data but what you need to do is a 1:1 merge of the PR and IR file. I believe you are using SPSS. You can see an example of the type of merge you need to do in the Guide to DHS Statistics. See Example two under the merging explanation: https://www.dhsprogram.com/Data/Guide-to-DHS-Statistics/inde x.htm#t=Analyzing_DHS_Data.htm&rhsearch=merge&rhhlte rm=merge&rhsyns=%20

Thank you.
Best,
