Q1. My intention is to merge the BQ file into the IR file and limit it to the 5 years preceding the survey. My intention specifically is to know if a women has ever reported an abortion, a miscarriage or a still birth. And then create a dummy variables for the pregnancy outcomes (0= No (for women who haven't experienced any of these outcomes, 1= Yes (for women who have experience these pregnancy outcomes.

If a woman has ever reported an abortion, a miscarriage or a still: how many number of abortion, miscarriages, or stillbirths has a woman reported within 5 years preceding the survey? I hope this is clear?
A major challenge in merging the BQ file to the IR file is that after merging, the numbers are bloated.
