Description
For women who gave birth in the five years before the survey, PNBABCKDOC_ALL indicates whether, in response to an open-ended question, the child's postpartum health check was performed by a doctor.
PNBABCKDOC_ALL consists of a set of up to six separate variables, covering the most recent birth (PNBABCKDOC_01) up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., PNBABCKDOC_02, PNBABCKDOC_03, PNBABCKDOC_04, PNBABCKDOC_05, and PNBABCKDOC_06) during the reference period prior to the survey. If PNBABCKDOC_ALL is included in a data extract, all these separate variables are included in a researcher's data file.
