		Hi,  
I want to calculate exclusive breastfeeding by using Bangladesh Demographic and Health survey 2014 data. I used the KR file and code give below. However, by using these code I found only 13.9% exclusive breastfeeding. In BDHS 2014 report this percentage is 55%. Can anyone help me to calculate an exact figure of exclusive breastfeeding by using BDHS 2014 data?. Here the comment i used  
 
 
use BDKR70FL.DTA 
 
* Last child in the last 2 years living with mother 
* age in months 
gen age = v008-b3 
* drop if too old or not alive 
keep if age<24 & b5==1 
* recode age into groups 
recode age (0/1=1 "0-1")(2/3=2 "2-3")(4/5=3 "4-5")(6/8=4 "6-8")(9/11=5 "9-11") /// 
           (12/17=6 "12-17")(18/23=7 "18-23")(24/59=.), gen(child_age) 
* tab of all living children born in the last 2 years 
tab child_age 
tab child_age [iw=v005/1000000] 
 
* keep only those children living with mother ... 
keep if b9==0 
* ... and keep the last born of those 
drop if _n > 0 & caseid == caseid[_n-1] 
* check the deonimnator 
tab child_age 
tab child_age [iw=v005/1000000] 
 
* breastfeeding status. 
 
gen water=0 
gen liquids=0 
gen milk=0 
gen solids=0 
gen breast=0 
 
* Water 
replace water=1 if (v409>=1 & v409<=7)  
                
* Other non-milk liquids 
* check for country specific liquids 
foreach xvar of varlist v409a v410 v410a v412c v413* { 
	replace liquids=1 if `xvar'>=1 & `xvar'<=7 
} 
                          
* Powdered or tinned milk, formula, fresh milk 
foreach xvar of varlist v411 v411a v412 { 
	replace milk=1 if `xvar'>=1 & `xvar'<=7 
} 
 
* Solid food 
* check for country specific foods 
foreach xvar of varlist v412a v412b v414* { 
	replace solids=1 if `xvar'>=1 & `xvar'<=7 
} 
 
* Still breastfeeding 
replace breast=1 if m4==95  
 
tab1 water liquids milk solids breast 
 
* 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 
 
label define feeding 0 "Not breastfeeding" 1 "exclusive breastfeeding" 2 "+Water" 3 "+Liquids"  4 "+Other Milk" 5 "+Solids" 
label val feeding feeding 
   
tab child_age feeding [iweight=v005/1000000], row 
 
Thanks in advance
