Dear Trevor-DHS,
I am working on Pakistan DHS. I want to investigate the determinants of early initiation of breastfeeding in Pakistani women, using IR file and variable M34_1 (for last birth only). The DHS report presented the rate of early initiation of breastfeeding in the children born two years preceding the survey.I already viewed the DHS statistic guide and recede manual but found only births in last five years preceding the survey(V208)and births in last three years preceding the survey (V238). Kindly guide me which variable is exactly showing the births in two years preceding the survey and children everbreastfed.
Regards
