Description

Definition

For children who were ever breastfed, BRSFEDST (M34) reports the length of time between the child's birth and when the child was first breastfed. Following DHS convention, intervals reported in hours are coded with a "1" in the first digit, and intervals reported in days are coded with a "2" in the first digit.
