Interviewer instructions
Questions 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 and 3.10 are asked to people who are 5 years old or older. For this, check the answer that you wrote down in question 3.3 Age.

3.11 Number of children
The question of number of children is asked if the person is a woman 12 completed years old or older.

Children born alive are those who after being born showed some sign of life, like crying, moving, breathing, heart beat, etc.

If a woman had a child born alive, register the name and ask the next question to know the number of children that are currently living, even if they do not reside in the same dwelling.
