If you are interested in the impact of maternal characteristics on children's nutrition, then this is not a household analysis. The unit of analysis would be children. Thus you would use the PR file and select the children you are interested in analyzing (and don't use "if hvidx==1" as that would limit your analysis only to the heads of households (who are not children)).
