Hi,
I am trying to see the determinants of exclusive breastfeeding in Armenia using DHS of 2010. For the purpose I used birth recode file of Armenia 2010 DHS. I tried to use variable m39=0 as child exclusively breastfeed but the number does not match with the table no: 12.3.
So would you please suggest me how can i get exact result as in table 12.3 for exclusive breastfeed for youngest children of 0-5 months who were born in last 2 years and lives with mother at the time of survey. It would be very easy for if you sent STATA command to calculate it.
Thank you for your support.

Dear User,
Here is a response from one of our experts, Trevor Croft, in communicating with another user:
If you are finding M5_1, M5_2, ... M5_6, those are the variables for 6 different children of the woman, and you must be using the IR dataset. M5_1 is for the last birth, M5_2 is for the child before that, M5_3 is for the child before that, etc.
A problem is that the data on feeding is the for the last child born in the last two years LIVING WITH THE MOTHER. So it is not sufficient to just select women who have children under 6 you need to work out if the child was living with the mother. To do this is easier to work with the KR file, not the IR file. In the KR file, there is only one M5 variable. The code below was written to work with the KR file.
If you want subset that dataset down to the cases you want, you can select on
V008 - B3 < 24 & LastChild==1
For the codes, they should all be documented in the dataset. If the labels are not coming through in the dataset, look at the .SAS file and you can find the labels in there. Search for variable M5 and you will see the format that is used with it. Then search the file for the format and you will find the labels:
93 = "Ever breastfed, not currently breastfeeding"
94 = "Never breastfed"
97 = "Inconsistent"
98 = "Don't know"
And 99 is Missing.
Also of use is the DHS Recode manual, although the codes are not listed in there: http://dhsprogram.com/publications/publication-dhsg4-dhs-que stionnaires-and-manuals.cfm
If you have additional questions, please post again.

Hello,
I went through this thread to get insight on how to calculate exclusive breastfeeding. Unfortunately the discussion here is based on calculation using STATA but i am carrying the analysis on SPSS. Can anyone help me in this case??
I am using KR file of PDHS 2012-13 and want to carry analysis on IYCF practices.
Thank you;
Anupa

Dear Liz,
I'm using STATA to calculate for the number of youngest child under two years living with their mother. I used the KR file (children dataset) with variables codes MIDX, B9 and hw1; using the Keep if command in STATA. However, I'm not getting the figures in the report. Please, want am I doing wrong? I'm trying to replicate Table 11.3: Breastfeeding status by age of Ghana DHS 2014

Hi Nuruzzaman,
I am following your instruction to calculate exclusive breastfeeding.I understood until Solid food calculation and have some queries. Grateful if you could help me.
1. * Still breastfeeding
replace breast=1 if m4==95
Can we use V404 instead of doing this as V404 gives us info about last child who are currently breastfed?
2. * Generate column variable used in table 11.3
gen feeding=1
replace feeding=2 if water==1
replace feeding=3 if liquids==1
replace feeding=4 if milk==1
replace feeding=5 if solids==1
replace feeding=0 if breast==0
tab feeding,m
I am doing the analysis in SPSS and couldn't understand what it mean by generating column variable?
Hoping to get your reply. Thanks a lot in advance.
A
