Dear User,
Do you still need assistance with this post? Dr. Kothari further responded:Quote:

If you notice in the attached table " # of babies with X perceived size" is calculated for all live births in last 5 years adding up to 100% including don't know responses. This indicates that the below highlighted statement from the user is correct. Please let me know if the response is still not clear to the user.

"We believe mother's perceived size at birth is actually (# babies with x perceived size/# births in the last 5 years) in which case we cannot use weight and size together."

Thank you!
