Dear all,

I am using the birth history data of Egypt in 2014 (EGBR61F) and I want to generate a variable showing exact day of birth of all children born to each mother (e.g., which day of the month). I am aware that there are month of birth (b1) and year of birth (b2) in the data but not day of birth. I am also aware of variable b19, which measures age of children in day, but this is not the variable I wanted. Any help if much appreciated. Thank you.

FYI, I am using Stata 17.
