Question 20: The last time the subject gave birth

The last childbirth (also referred to as "the most recent childbirth") of the subject is the birth closest to the time of the investigation, and is one live birth (or more than one, if twins or triplets), regardless of whether that child is alive at the time of the investigation.
If a woman who gave birth for the first time, it is also "the most recent childbirth".

20.b) Did you give birth to boy or girl this time?
The investigator writes the number of the most recent live-birth boys and girls of the subject in the appropriate boxes (if "one child", there is only one boy or one girl). If "none", then "0" must also be recorded in the appropriate box; the box may not be left blank. For example, a woman reports that during the last childbirth she gave birth to twin boys. It must be recorded as follows: [An example has been omitted.]
