Thank you Bridgette. I have a follow-up question on the denormalisation of weights, you said that "it will be easier if you just change the weights (v005) in the IR files, using the estimated numbers of women age 15-49 in the population, regardless of marital status. THEN select the currently married women in the data files."

In the case where I am using complete case analysis and have removed 1803 out of 85274 records with missing/na values. Won't this affect the weight?
