Description

ANKNOWMO_ALL reports how many months pregnant the female respondent was when she came to know about her pregnancy.

ANKNOWMO_ALL consists of separate variables, covering the most recent birth (ANKNOWMO_01) and, in some cases, additional births, potentially up to the sixth-most-recent birth (i.e., ANKNOWMO_02, ANKNOWMO_03, ANKNOWMO_04, ANKNOWMO_05, and ANKNOWMO_06). For most surveys, this information was collected for only the most recent birth; exceptions are noted in the comparability section.

Comparability

Apart from universe differences and slight differences in question wording, ANKNOWMO_ALL is largely comparable across samples.

ANKNOWMO_ALL is a country-specific variable, and it is not included in the standard DHS women's questionnaire.
