I don’t think Regina is pregnant. There is too much other plot going on to force a baby plot in. A pregnancy scare in one episode is possible but not a full blown Regina is pregnant plot.
Of course, you may be right. But for me, it really depends on how the writers would weave the plot in. I think it could be pretty exciting if done properly. The implications alone for Regina’s ability to do light magic against the queens of darkness would be interesting. Because if we go by the show’s previous logic then Emma has light magic because she’s a true love’s child. Regina’s and Robin’s child would be too … so …
[adrotate group="5"]IF Regina were pregnant, does that mean it would even have to be apart of this plotline? Like, Regina could simply discover she is pregnant as the 4B cliffhanger and it could just be heavily foreshadowed here and there. Idk. Having Regina be pregnant is…interesting but I think it only adds more complications to the marian situation.
But.. a little part of me wouldn’t mind her having a baby just so one day we could get a spinoff with Henry, Rumbaby, Baby Snowflake, and BabyRegal(?) 😛

Previously I had said that I didn’t think Regina is pregnant.
But why the 6 weeks between Rumple being forced over the town line and him finding Ursula? Why did the show jump 6 weeks forward in time? Is it so either Emma or Regina can be absolutely sure they are in the early stages of pregnancy? I have been thinking about this for a while, ever since I watched the ep.The writers don’t move the plot forward in time arbitrarily, there must be a reason.
Then again, over the counter pee-on-a-stick test can tell you that within 2-3 weeks of conception…
Hmm…
Does anyone have any alternative theories as to why Once moved forwards in time by 6 weeks?

Well, it’s not really Marian that is the issue anymore. But rather the town line. If the curse is lifted, Robin and Marian can just live on each side of the line and share Roland. I mean, they were already feeding ducks together – all together 🙂
Being a diligent viewer paying attention to detail, I really do think there’s something about this pregnancy. Too many clues so far for it not to happen. And yes, the 6 week jump pretty much seems a dead give-away, in my opinion.

Nope, have thought about it … It’s a “time to find out and be sure you’re really truly healthily pregnant time jump” 🙂 – one to two weeks would have been plenty for Rumple to find Ursula (in theory) – or they could have chosen to give the Storybrooke citizens a break and jump, say 6 months or more. But neither the very short or significantly longer time jump would work well for an “unexpected” pregnancy storyline. As I’m writing this, I’m only convincing myself even more that the blind item applies to OUAT. And for sure Regina, not Emma.
Oh, and Merry Xmas.
My Christmas wish for this show is that this Blind Item has absolutely NOTHING to do with Once.
*holds hands in prayer*
I would howl in laughter (and cry a little) if this Blind Item has nothing to do with Once at all but we still get a baby. Belle having a bun in the oven would be angsty. Her husband is full on evil, she kicked him over the line, and she’s pregnant. 😉

Well, any time jump could be just to explain Henry continuing to grow up. But for that purpose alone, a longer one would seem to be more usefull, as you say. Very interesting!

I’ve been thinking about this and I don’t think it is going to be Regina, if it is related to Once at all.
1. Regina’s already been a single mother so there is no drama there at all. This time she can even have Henry help out plus Snowing and Emma.
2. The whole not wanting the baby to grow up without a father is Rumple’s thing so it would be annoying for Regina to suddenly steal Rumple’s motivation.
(The drama would be rife for RumBelle, Belle being a single mother, Rumple not wanting the baby to grow up without a father, but it definitely isn’t about RumBelle since the spoiler goes on to suggest the logical next step would be marriage and RumBelle are already married).
3. I think the whole OQ ship is already too messy and screwed up as it is without adding a further complication to the mix. I blame the writers on that one, if only they hadn’t made Regina Marian’s murderer.
Emma is a possibility but I’m not overly keen on that as it is too soon. Unplanned is an angle they might want to go, and it would come with lots of drama in terms of Emma’s feelings, Henry’s reaction, etc, but still I rather this spoiler not be related to Once.

True, that’s not the drama. The drama is that Regina is a different person fearing that she’ll get a villain’s ending – and where will that leave her child … Plus adopting a child in a timeline where she is in complete control of everyone and doesn’t have magic is a very different storyline from her now even having light magic and (if it happens) is pregnant with a true love’s child – AND up against the three queens of darkness …
You’re right, it’s messy – but wouldn’t it be boring, otherwise. However, I agree with you that the OQ storyline could have been written a bit more elegantly. Still feeling it, though.
We’ll see. I think the blind item IS concerning Regina. But I know I could be wrong. Just don’t see any other reason for Regina’s very particular face midway through the promo … 😉 (that’s me being a detective … )

Well….technically….it’s just a cruel twist of fate Regina was Marian’s murderer which is no longer active, so I really wish people will forgive and forget just as Marian has….geez, Regina’s saved her life twice! If anything Marian now owes her one, though I guess we can count Marian choosing to step aside as payment to Regina, so they’re even!
Emma can’t be a possibility because as far as we know now…she hasn’t slept with Hook. Robin and Regina’s pregnant storyline would be much more interesting considering they seem to have a “lost” history that we have not seen. Also due to the fact, the Evil Queen being pregnant would most likely cause her powers to be weakened a little and we have the Queens of Darkness coming, all whose she’s trifled against before, so there’s that issue.
I think having Regina really not able to fight the Queens of Darkness as she did Peter Pan and Zelena will force Emma to the forefront because she has nobody who can just handle this one, because Regina’s magic is weak while pregnant, and Rumple is evil, so Emma will have to just come forward and be the Savior she was born to be.
