Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years and who saw someone for antenatal care, ANVISMOLAST_ALL (M41_x) reports the timing of the last antenatal visit, in months from the start of the pregnancy.

ANVISMOLAST_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANVISMOLAST_01) and, in some cases, additional births, up to, potentially, the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANVISMOLAST_02, ANVISMOLAST_03, ANVISMOLAST_04, ANVISMOLAST_05, and ANVISMOLAST_6). For most surveys, this information on the month of the last antenatal visit for a pregnancy was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
