Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

You should be ok except that the full identifier for a woman (or mother) is v001 v002 v003. You just have v001 v002, which would match households but not women.

However, why would you want to merge the KR and IR files? The KR file includes almost all the information about the woman (mother). What is there in the IR file that you want to add to the child and cannot already find in the KR file?
