Interviewer instructions
If the woman has had a live birth, enter the number of live births by their sex. For example, if a woman gave birth to one girl and two boys enter “01” for females and “02” for males.

If the woman has never had a live birth, i.e. “00” for both female and male, leave the rest of the section blank to show that the following questions are not applicable to that woman and move on to the next eligible woman in the household.
