Interviewer instructions
Question 21 How may children born alive have you had?

This question is only for women 15 years old or older.
It should be kept in mind that generally the enumerated person tends to omit those children who were born alive but died shortly thereafter or at the moment of birth, limiting themselves to declaring only those who are currently alive. Because of this, emphasis should be made to phrase the question so that is it clear that the number of children born alive is what is wanted, [p. 50] and that it is not important how many are still alive and how many have died. Keep in mind that children who are with the mother as well as those who do not live with her are to be included.
Write down "00" for all women 15 years old or older who have not had a child.
