Duplicate Keywords - List #36 (Proposals for Permanent Merger and Auto-Conversion) (couple, pregnancy, & childbirth keywords)

Here is the next installment of my lists of proposed keywords for permanent merger and auto-conversion.

I am posting this for fellow contributors to review first and raise any objections or questions. I will wait at least 14 days before changing this post to a "problem" post and asking IMDb staff to make the proposed changes.

The mergers and auto-conversions should be made in the direction of the arrows.

Thank you, @Fran​!

I double-checked the list and caught two keywords that may require further attention. 

First, it looks like the keyword illegitimate-child has not yet been merged into child-born-out-of-wedlock

Second, something weird might have happened with the keyword "romantic-couple". Exactly 12,000 of the 12,538 instances of that keyword have been merged into "couple," leaving 538 instances of "romantic-couple" that have not yet been merged. 

It's possible that the merger has not yet fully taken effect. But I have seen situations happen before where a mass merger short-circuits partway through. That may have happened here. If so, you might need to redo the merger of "romantic-couple" into "couple." Can you please take a look?

A comment on my own list: I will be removing the keyword pregnant-teenage-girl from the list. I no longer believe it should be merged into the keyword pregnant-teenager

I realized those two keywords are not true duplicate/synonyms, because believe it or not, there is a keyword pregnant-boy that is currently assigned to 1 title (a science fiction title), which helped me realize there could eventually be a keyword "pregnant-teenage-boy."

I have also added romantic-couple to the list, to be merged into couple

"romantic-couple" is a duplicate for "couple," and in fact, there are only 9 titles that currently have the keyword "romantic-couple" without the keyword "couple."

Now that the 14-day comment period has finished, this list is ready for action by staff. I will paste the list below with the numbers of titles removed in order to facilitate the mass merger and auto-conversion process.
