9 months vs. 10 months ...  Hmmm....  I don't have a firm opinion on it.  I suspect 10 months is a better elapsed time.

As for twins - Is it possible to skip when the age difference is less than (pick a number) three days?  Twins are normally born the same day, but it is possible to get a situation where one twin is born at 11:55pm and the next at 12:10 am which results in a one day difference.  I think even for larger multiple births (triplets, quads etc) one day should suffice.

For my use, getting a perfect set of results is not required.  I am more interested in getting a report that I can use to investigate possible errors.  The Records report serves the same purpose.  If I see someone who died at age 160, I will take a close look!
