Description

Definition
For women who gave birth in the last three to five years, ANCONV_ALL indicates whether she experienced convulsions while pregnant.

ANCONV_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANCONV_01) and, in some cases, additional births, potentially up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANCONV_02, ANCONV_03, ANCONV_04, ANCONV_05, and ANCONV_06). For most surveys, this information on convulsions as a complication of pregnancy was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.
