Dear Sir/Madam,
I am comparing postnatal care for newborns in 2008 and 2014 in Ghana. I do not see "postnatal care for newborns' in the 2008 GHDS report and so I calculated it using inputs from some post on this forum but will like to know if the syntax is correct.

*###########conditions for postnatal care####
* age in months
gen age = v008-b3
lab var age "Age in months"
ta age
sort caseid bidx
* keep if under 24 months and living with mother
keep if age<25 & b9==0
codebook b9
* ... and keep the last born of those. If caseid is the same as the prior case, then not the last born.
drop if _n > 0 & caseid == caseid[_n-1]

gen posnababy=m71
replace posnababy=1001 if m71<=202 & m71!=.
replace posnababy=1000 if m71>202 & m71<=316
replace posnababy=1000 if m71==998 |m71==999
ta posnababy
Thank you.
