But the whole point was to send Snow through still pregnant so Emma would not have been alone.

I’m sure there will be a perfectly good explanation if it’s the case…maybe since Emma and Pinocchio were both children that is the only way it would work for two people, and they had to send a child to watch over Emma.
I haven’t watched the ep in a lil while, but from memory, the wardrobe didn’t really look big enough to have taken a woman who was 9 months pregnant, it was more child size. So it wouldn’t surprise me if Blue Fairy knew all along that Snow herself wouldn’t be going in that wardrobe.
Even if pregnant Snow HAD have gone through, the tree would have been protecting two, not one like Blue Fairy was telling everyone, so I think she wasn’t telling everyone the whole truth about whatever plan she was up to.
I wonder if the rules of the tree are similar to the rules of the hat: the same number have to come back through the portal as went in. Emma and August have both “come back” to the displaced Fairytale Land, (and so far, they’ve been the only two people from outside Storybrooke who have ever come to town).
