Interviewer instructions
For women 12 years of age and older

Remember that:
A child born alive is considered to be a child that, upon being born, showed some sign of life, such as breathing, crying, or moving, even though they may have died shortly thereafter.
If the person reports that they haven't had children, record "0" in the box and conclude the interview with this person.
Stepchildren and adopted children are not included in this question.
