Following is a response from Noureddine Abderrahim, Senior DHS Specialist:

You need to use the cluster number, the household number, the woman's line number, and the child's line number in the birth history (BIDX) to identify the child. This will ensure that you do not get duplicate cases as reported in your post.

Please keep in mind that some children do not live in the household, and for that reason, you can't use the line number in the household (B16).
