Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

The subscript identified by gidx_01 is the value of bidx in the birth history, which is always numbered from youngest (1 or 01) to oldest. The birth order, from oldest to youngest, is the reverse of bidx and is given by bord. For example, if gidx_01 is 7, then it refers to the child in the birth history with bidx=7.
