Perhaps time works different in Oz than it does in EF. Also, the original dark curse seems to have frozen all the lands, according to OUATinWL.
According to Adam this isn’t true NL wasn’t.

NL is frozen because it’s NL.
But yes, WL was frozen for 28 years, as was fictional London. Just like SB

I believe Watcher said something like OZ doesnt’ have time either or at least people don’t age normally. I can’t remember but I would believe that as well. So who knows, when it comes to fantasy lands it is not unusual to have things like this (Narnia for example has the kids growing into adults then returning to the real world as kids, going back to find centuries passed and they were distant legends.)
I like the idea Cora had a baby she gave up BEFORE the events of Miller’s daughter, but I don’t know. I could also see her having twins, and because the children are born green as a side effect of practicing magic while pregnant, ends up making a deal with Rumple who conveniently shows up with a solution. He was in the crowd at the presentation of the baby and we did get the idea they’d clashed more than that one time. So he forces her hand by making her give ONE baby to him, and he takes it away, in exchange that the other one will be perfectly normal in appearance.
Rumple tries to mold Wicked but she proves unsuitable because to cast the curse you have to be able to love someone, and she isn’t, but Regina is. So he abandons her in Oz. Then he decides to go back after Regina. It’s a little retroactively changing what we saw but not too badly. It would explain why no mention of this sister ever because no one ever knew but Rumple, and he doesn’t volunteer information that’s not relevant. Neither does Regina “Who’s Jefferson” Mills. It might also explain why Wicked might want the curse –she might have been manipulated by Rumple into a similar fury of revenge against someone who went to the land without magic (Dorothy!). Regina is 18 by the time Rumple starts her training–surely he could have started earlier with Wicked or even simultaneously just hedging his bets.

Admittedly, the idea of twins popped into my head, too. Yet, ginger hair is recessive I think to brown hair, and Henry Sr. was Latino, as is Regina. So, I don’t think Regina and WWW share the same father; just he same mother. But hey, you never know. The casting department doesn’t always get it right (e.g. August doesn’t really resemeble young Pinocchio. Even if Pinocchio’s hair darkened with age, how do you explain his eyes going from brown to blue?). So, if the casting department doesn’t always think of genetics, then yes, I could see Regina and WWW being fraternal twins with the same parents. It would make life a lot simpler if Henry Sr. is the father of both WWW and Regina.

January 25, 2014 at 2:56 pm #240667HappyEndingsSpectatorThis is a good idea:
I don’t think the Wicked Witch will be related to anyone. I think she’s someone young Cora messed with, and now she wants revenge. Since Cora is dead, she’s going to take it out on Regina, paralleling what Regina did to Snow (blamed her for what Cora did).

Fine by me.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"January 25, 2014 at 4:00 pm #240684HappyEndingsSpectatorABC’s Once Upon a Time is bringing back a familiar evil later this season — but to what end?
TVLine has confirmed that in Season 3, Episode 18, Rose McGowan will reprise the role of Young Cora.
McGowan first appeared as the onetime miller’s daughter in the March 2013 episode titled… well, “The Miller’s Daughter,” in which it was revealed in flashback that Cora and Rumple once kinda sorta had a “thing.” Until she removed her own heart in the name of pursuing great power, as Prince Henry’s wife. By episode’s end, she had given birth to wittle bitty baby Regina.
Why will Once again revisit Young Cora? Is it to perhaps add a branch to the show’s complicated family tree, which is due to add two spaces by the end of the season? (The Wicked Witch’s backstory will at least have begun to be revealed two episodes prior.) And what if anything might this suggest about the big upcoming ? (When we first met Young Cora, her current-day self died in that episode.)
Also, who could be having this flashback — Regina? A possibly returned Rumple?/blockquote>

January 25, 2014 at 4:14 pm #240687HappyEndingsSpectatorEven assuming that one of those additions will be the wished-for Charming bambino — a likelihood bolstered by the news that Ginnifer Goodwin is pregnant by fiancé/scene partner Josh Dallas – on which branch do you think the other new family member will surface? Will someone gain a sister? Or maybe a long-lost child?

I think that question assumes an answer: YES, Regina’s going to gain a sister!

I was thinking maybe Snow or Snow’s baby could be a girl too. Or perhaps Aurora is related to someone like Snow.
