Hello

My query is my estimates for table 11.7 Among nonbreastfed children age 6-23 months, percentage fed for minimum acceptable diet are not coming same as in Nigeria dhs 2018 report for example values for sex of child generated are (male: 9, female: 14.9) whereas for residence are (urban: 15.7, rural: 7.1) these are different then the report although the total coming is fine and estimates for rest of the table are correct I am confused where am I making mistake for minimum acceptable diet help will be appreciated, thank you

//currently breastfed
gen bf_curr= m4==95
label values bf_curr yesno
label var bf_curr "Currently breastfeeding"

//Fed milk or milk products
gen milkf = 0
replace milkf=milkf + v469e if v469e<8
replace milkf=milkf + v469f if v469f<8
replace milkf=milkf + v469x if v469x<8
gen fed_milk= ( milkf>=2 | m4==95) if inrange(b19,6,23)

//Min dietary diversity
* 8 food groups

*1. breastmilk
