Question pretext

Question post text

[PLEASE INCLUDE ALL PREGNANCIES EVEN THOSE THAT DID NOT RESULT INTO LIVE BIRTHS].

Interviewer instructions

You should ask this question very carefully and sensitively because many women are not likely to include pregnancies that did not terminate in a live birth, particularly those that they terminated themselves (induced abortion) because of the stigma associated with abortion in our culture.
