Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

The IR file has women as units. There are separate values of these variables for up to 6 children born in the past 5 years. The children are numbered 1, 2, etc., with 1 for the most recent birth, etc. You should use the KR file, which has one record for each child.
