I assume that you are comparing to table 4.3 in the 2011 report, not table 6.4 (which is about mean ideal number of children). Perhaps you were referring to a table in a prior report.

To match table 4.3, you just need to correct your svy: ratio command. In your current command, you are calculating the table just for married women, but this table includes all women. You also need to restrict it to women age 20+. You can use the following svy: ratio commands:

svy: ratio CM18/aw if v013 >= 2
svy: ratio CM18/aw if v013 >= 2, over(v013)
