Hello team,
I am working with the Madagascar DHS 2009.
I am just wondering what was the question asked for the variable V404: "Mothers currently breastfeeding". Is it the index child or just a child in the household?
Also, I just wanted to confirm that the data in the child dataset is about any child in the household that was younger than 5 years at the time of the survey, not the youngest child younger than 5 years. IS that correct?
Thank you!
Hasina
