Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCARECOM_ALL (M43_x) indicates whether the woman was told about the signs of pregnancy complications during an antenatal care visit.

ANCARECOM_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCARECOM_01) and, in some cases, additional births, up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCARECOM_02, ANCARECOM_03, ANCARECOM_04, ANCARECOM_05, and ANCARECOM_06). For most surveys, this information on informing the woman about pregnancy complications was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
