[Questions P30-P33 were asked of women age 12 years or older]




P33. Number of children still alive
Of the number of births born alive in the last 12 months, record how many are still alive. Write the number of boys and girls in the boxes provided. Then, shade the digits as appropriate.

Important: You should make sure that you do not leave any columns from P30 to P33 blank for any woman aged 12 years or more. For instance, where a woman has reported having no children ever born alive in column P30, you should record zero(s) in the boxes but do not leave any of the boxes blank.

While probing for this information, make sure that the woman does not exclude any of her children who might have died shortly after birth, as long as they were born alive. Furthermore, any of her children who might have died at any other age are to be recorded. However, ensure that still births: that is, the births which did not show any signs of life, are not included.
