Hello,

I was going over the codes provided here for 4+ ANC visits:

https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-Stata/blob/mast er/Chap09_RH/RH_ANC.do

Why are we including "don't know/missing" response in the 0 category. I mean, why are we not treating it as a missing value and excluding it from the calculations. Only when I include it, I'm exactly able to match the estimate for 4+ ANC visits given in Table 8.5 on page 217 in NFHS-4 national report.

The same goes for the variable: ANC before 4 months.

Please help.
