We actually dealt with this topic at Duke in the OB system in the early 1980s. We did create a record. One interesting problem was "ghost" pregnancies in which it appeared for a period of time to have two fetuses later to be one. Our actually execution turned out to not create the new baby record until birth but to back load the data from the mother. This also solved IDing problems.
