27.1. Number of live-born children, Columns 31 through 34


27.1.1. Total, Column 31 and 32
"Number of live born children" is the number of living children a woman (who has been married at least once) has given birth to up to now. These children might be alive or dead at the present time and might be living with this or another household. Ask the total number of live-born children for any woman who has been assigned code 1 in Column 30 and write the answer as a two-digit number, based on the gender of the child, in each of the boxes in Columns 31 and 32.

- Note that for those women who have been married more than once, the sum of the number of children obtained from all the marriages should be written in both of these columns. For instance, for a woman who has given birth to a son in her last marriage and 2 daughters in her current marriage, write 01 in Column 31 and 02 in Column 32.
- Note that for those women who have given birth only to boys or girls, write the number of children in one column and mark the other as "--".
