How do you explain this time line?

Ruth said the pendant could predict the sex of an unborn baby….it would swing N/S for a boy and E/W for a girl.
When she held the pendant up it didn’t swing, denoting that Snow was not pregnant.

Ruth’s exact words:

Ruth: My mother gave this to me when I was pregnant. She said it was spelled by a gypsy to predict the sex of your first-born, even before you’re with child.

The pendant wasn’t a pregnancy test indicator, it was purely a gender indicator.

Good catch! That would certainly make much more sense showing Snow that it was possible / would definitely happen. I didn’t really love the idea of Lake Nostos being QUITE that powerful but couldn’t think of another explanation since I clearly remembered it moving. I guess I just assumed that it wouldn’t be able to tell such a thing until there was actually a baby to use it on but I guess it can! Perhaps the pilot thing was just a coincidence (or I guess technically by then she could have been, since they were already married). Haven’t watched Lady of the Lake in awhile and didn’t remember that quote, just that it eventually moved. Sounds like a season 2 rewatch is in order sometime soon.
