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

The number of children ever born is v201 (in the IR file). Current pregnancy status is v218. Ever pregnant is given by v228. You can work with these variables. The weight variable is v005. Your statistical package will tell you how to use weights.
