Interviewer instructions

Check the age of the child in UF13. If the child is under 2 years old, check the appropriate box, 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 and then measure and record standing height. Write a zero first if the number of centimetres is two digits
