Hello! Well, actually there is no table or variable regards to pregnancy order. But, I am intending to find out the risk factors of terminated pregnancy. As there is a variable of a terminated pregnancy, I want to find out which pregnancy number/order it was that has been terminated, and if the women had multiple terminated pregnancies which I mentioned as the previous history of another terminated pregnancy in my last inquiry. Can you please help me how can I identify or generate those two variables?
I thought in a way, but I might be wrong. If I count the miscarriage as a birth a determine the birth order and indicate it as the current terminated pregnancy, will it be an appropriate calculation?

I hope you can understand my asking and I am hoping to hear from you soon.

Thank you.
