Warning: these figures indicate the number of cases found in the data file. They cannot be interpreted as summary statistics of the population of interest.
Interviewer instructions
You need to obtain the month of the woman's most recent birth, even if the child is no longer living, or is the child of a partner other than her current one.

You will have to convert month to a number, as you have been instructed. If the month contains only one digit, use a zero to fill in the first space. For example, the month of March is coded as '03'.

If she cannot give the month, probe to try to estimate the month. If you cannot estimate the child's month of birth from this information, you may need to find out in which season he/she was born.
