Interviewer instructions
Chapter VI-Fertility

1. You are about to start a new topic so you have to prepare the respondent by informing her that you are now going to ask her questions about children and child bearing. Remember these are questions to be asked of female adults and not for husbands to answer for their wives, except where it is inevitable. Questions on fertility are to be asked only of those females who are 12 years old and over and they involve only their own children.


F - 2: Age at first live birth
3. Ask the female respondent who has ever had a live birth how old she was when she had her first live birth. You are to record the age of the respondent at the time of her first live birth. If the first child was born dead, or the first pregnancy was aborted or miscarried, then you have to ask about the second pregnancy, etc., until she says that she gave birth to a child who was alive at the time of birth. Enter this age (in completed years) in the boxes provided.
