Jay, I do it in the "Child Status" field - get there by right clicking on a parent, View > Children List. There is a drop down list to choose from, and I have "Twin" there. There's a very good possibility that I added "Twin" to that list myself many years ago, though--it may not be standard. You'll have to click to include it on reports (Report Options). One thing I will mention, though: Another Child Status is "Adopted"--if you choose to use that child status, then when you 'turn on' printing child status to see the twins, you will also see the adopted children (they will be identified in print as "(Adopted)"). Just something to keep in mind if you think you'll be producing reports where maybe you shouldn't be showing who is adopted. I think maybe others on the list record the "adopted" status in the "Relationship to Father" or "Relationship to Mother" fields, which can be controlled separately in the Report Options, too (as I remember... I didn't go back and check all of those before I started typing this). I don't think you would want to record that an individual is a twin in the Birth Notes... I think it would just be too clunky to print there--though you can control whether those print on reports. --Paula

Is the best place to Log Twins, Triplets etc the "Child Relationships"? or is there a place connected to the birth /record? Thanks in advance for any help.
