An interesting item I heard from my office-mate who is expecting near
the first of the year, is that the deduction is for when the baby
is due, not when the baby is actually born.  She has not checked
this out fully, however. I suspect that if this is the case,
most babies born in the first part of January are late according
to the doctors estimate for tax purposes.

If anyone knows of any authoratative references of truth or falsehood
of this statement, please let me know, and I will pass it on to
my roommate.
