Questions and instructions
Literal question
Of these (total number) births you have had, when did you deliver the last one (even if he or she has died)?
Interviewer instructions
Questions CM11Y-CM11D are used to ascertain the woman's eligibility for the next two modules.
You need to obtain the year of the woman's most recent birth, even if the child is no longer living, or is the child of a partner other than her current one. As with all questions about dates and ages, you may need to probe to obtain the best information.
Ask for the child's date of birth. If she knows the exact birth date, enter the day, month and year of birth on the lines provided and continue to CM3.
If she can give the year of the birth, enter it in the space provided and continue to next question.
