Following is a response from DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
We apologize for the delay in this response. You may no longer have a question.
Most of the IR variables are copied onto the BR file. That is, most of the mother's characteristics are attached to the child's characteristics. Look for the variables you need in the BR file. If you still need to know how to merge additional IR variables into the BR please let us know.
If you are working with just children under 5, then you would use the KR file and what I said above about the BR file would apply to the KR file. The KR file is a subset of the BR file, for children born in the past 5 years.
Each child's immunization data is on the record in the KR file. You can look up the names of the variables and construct the indicators that appear in the final report. All of the recodes are on our GitHub site (https://github.com/DHSProgram/DHS-Indicators-Stata)
