Following is a response from Senior DHS Specialist, Kerry MacQuarrie:

Can you please provide some more detailed information so we can better advise you? Can you let us know:
• Which survey you are using?
• The children's health outcome variables you are using?
• Which data files you are trying to merge, including which you have set as the "master" data file and as the "using" data file?
• Which ID variables you are using to match your cases?
• Which software you are using (Stata, SPSS, R, etc)?

In the meantime, this YouTube video explains DHS data structure and may help you confirm if you are using the correct data files.

I look forward to your response; I'm sure together we can troubleshoot the issues you are having with your merge.
