Pre-question
Child's length or height. Check age of child in AG2: - Child under 2 years old. -> Measure length (lying down). - Child age 2 or more years. -> Measure height (standing up).
Interviewer instructions
Check the age of the child in AG2. If the child is under 2 years old, check the appropriate box, circle '1' and then measure and record recumbent length (that is, lying down), to the nearest tenth of a centimetre. If the child is age two or older, check the corresponding box, circle '2', and then measure and record standing height. Write a zero first if the number of centimetres is two digits.
