Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

Here is a Stata program to construct a file that is equivalent to an IR file, for the calculation of fertility rates. You should be able to use it with Bruno Schoumaker's tfr2 program, or with the fertility program on DHS's GitHub site. If you want rates for covariates, such as region, you just need to save them from wm.dta.
