For the child survival longitudinal data, determinants of child survival for the child death by relationship between rick factor and survival status. In the previous studies mainly marginal analysis was performed for specific birth order or combined analysis all birth orders. However the dependence in the outcome of survival status of the consecutive birth order was not taken into account. This study also show that there is no sex performance of the survival status for first three children at neonatal infant and under 5 stages. It is also found that there is statistically significant dependence of the survival status of the consecutive births.
