Interviewer instructions
For females age 13 or older (Questions 32-38)
This information is extremely important and should therefore be answered directly by each girl or woman as much as possible.
Definitions:
Live-born
This is a child who showed some sign of life at birth (breathing, crying, muscular movement or heart beat), even if s/he later died.
Question 33. How many live-born children has [the woman] had in total?
Use two digits to write the total number of live-born children, and how many of them were males and how many were females.
If the total number of males and females does not add up to the total number of live-born children, verify the information with the informant.
