I am currently working on breastfeeding initiation time. I have noticed quite a lot of discrepancies between my results using R and the DHS report. What could be the reason why? For example, the report says 2100 children were born in the 2 years preceding the survey and were used for the m34 variable. However, I find that in R, there are 3725 complete responses and the rest are not applicable. The report prevalence is 28% and mine is 24%. Why is this so? What am I doing wrong?
