Question 26 How many sons or daughters born alive have you had?

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 it is clear that the number of children born alive is what is wanted, 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.
In the case of women who have never had a child, mark the box "None" ()00 and continue with question 30.

[The instructions refer to a graphic of question 26 of the census form.]
