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

You are apparently using the IR file, in which the cases are women, and children born in the past 5 years are indicated with _1, _2, etc. It will be easier if you switch to the KR file, in which children are units.

But if your goal is to construct a single variable that combines / integrates the values of m15 for all children, you will have to construct that yourself. There is not a standard construction for such a variable.
