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

You should be able to calculate wanted fertility rates in R using the GitHub code for Chapter 6 of the final report ( https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-R/tree/main/Cha p06_FF). The R procedure is based on a Stata program I wrote (INTERT LINK) and you may be able to figure out the logic more easily from the comments in the Stata version. Hope this will answer your question.
