Encircle "1" (YES) if she has children
who have died or if she has ever given birth to a boy or girl who was born alive but later died. Otherwise, encircle "2" if none.
Some respondents may fail to mention children who died very young so if she answers “NO” in Q.206, it is important to probe by asking "Any baby who cried or showed signs of life but survived only a few hours or days?" Some respondents may be reluctant to talk about this subject and may become sad or upset that you are asking such questions. Be sympathetic and tactful in such situations. Say that you know that the subject is painful, but that the information is important.
