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

I suggest that you open the IR file and enter the following lines:
keep *_1

lookfor complic

The first line ("keep *_1") is just so the variables won't be listed 6 times.  These questions are asked about each child born in the last 5 years (up to 6 children) and the variables have survey-specific names (beginning with the letter "s").  They are coded with a separate variable for each option because multiple options could apply.
