Dear Shirisha,
If you use IPUMS-DHS, you do not need to merge the files. Nearly all of the women and household variables are available when children are selected as the unit of analysis.
You can use the Topics drop down menu to browse for the variables that interest you. Child sex is "kidsex", birth order is "kidbord". These are both under the Child Core Demographic topic. You'll find the child's z-scores under the Child Anthropometry topic.
Click on the + sign by a variable to add it to your data extract. Click on the variable name to get details about it, including skip patterns (under "Universe") and the exact survey text.
Click on "Select samples" to limit the information to just the Indian surveys.
