Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Mahmoud Elkasabi:

I'm afraid that appending the surveys as you described is not correct because surveys with large sample size will dominate the analysis regardless of the country size. I would advise you to take another look at the posted discussions on this issue as we mentioned earlier.
