Hello. Can you help me on how to create a variable for "Whether the most recently born infant in last 5 years died by age 12 months" into yes/no..in stata?

//Last child born in 5 years preceding survey
gen bornlast5y = .
replace bornlast5y = 1 if b3_01 >= 1297 & b3_01<=1363
tab bornlast5y, mi
svy:tab bornlast5y
//Infant is alive now or died in infancy
gen infantalive = .
replace infantalive = 1 if bornlast5y == 1 & b5_01 == 1
replace infantalive = 0 if bornlast5y == 1 & b5_01 == 0 & b7_01 < 13
label variable infantalive "Whether infant is alive"
tab infantalive, mi
svy: tab infantalive
