Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

Many such questions are limited to the most recent birth. If you cross-tabulate one of those outcomes with bidx, you will probably see that all or virtually all of the "." codes are for children with bidx>1. (The most recent birth has bidx=1.) You can also look at the questionnaire in the back of the main report, and check the skip pattern.
