Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

I'd say that your units of analysis are women. If a woman has had no children, then it is true that she is not a mother, but 0 is a valid number of children. If you wanted to calculate the mean number of children ever born, you would include the women for whom v201=0. If you just want to analyze women who have had at least one child, then DROP the women with v201=0.
