Following is a response from DHS Senior Research Associate, Shireen Assaf:

After creating your water, liquid, milk and solid variables, please use the following code to match the report.

gen feeding=1
replace feeding=2 if water==1
replace feeding=3 if liquids==1
replace feeding=4 if milk==1
replace feeding=5 if solids==1
replace feeding=0 if breast==0
label define feeding 0 "Not breastfeeding" 1 "exclusive breastfeeding" 2 "+Water" 3 "+Liquids" 4 "+Other Milk" 5 "+Solids"
label val feeding feeding

*complimentary feeding is category #5 (+solids) and this matches the report for this age group which is 19.1%
ta feeding if age<6 [iw=v005/1000000]

*creating the predominant breastfeeding variable. 
recode feeding (0 4 5=0) (1/3=1), gen(predom)

*this matches the report of 77.5% for predominant breastfeeding
ta predom if age<6 [iw=v005/1000000]
