This pertains to various DHS and MIS (not one single survey). Therefore, I think it is a systematic issue with using these variables in the child recode file, and I don't quite get why this is the case. Wouldn't all children have a mother that was pregnant in the past 60(?) months and would thus be asked this question. Otherwise, is it a shorter period for last pregnancy recall and so older children with mothers not recently pregnant would not be asked this question, thus creating a large number of missing values.
