I assume you mean revealed IRL.

True, the arcs in story take place over a month's time (probably less than that). But, the filming over the arc takes place over 2-3 months, where baby bump can go from almost non-existant to full-fledged bump. Also, there is a lot of extra work needed to make sure a pregnant woman does not appear pregnant when she's not supposed to be.

And, if you look at 4A, even though Ginny had her baby over the Summer, her pregnancy weight has taken a while to come off. Now, I'm not sure how much of that is costuming and makeup making sure that Snow looks like she just had a baby and Ginny still recovering from the effects of being pregnant. If Lana or Emilie, or even JMo, were to come up pregnant at this point, it would take a lot more work to either adjust storylines, or adjust filming, to keep the pregnancy from interfering with the show.

Point being, as Applegirl pointed out, Snow being pregnant in the show flowed from previous setup with her character. It was a natural progression, one that took advantage of the Actress also being pregnant. Nothing has been set up for Belle, Regina, or Emma to want to be Moms, and any move in that direction would be, as they say, Jumping the shark.

As for the source of Emilie being Pregnant, that was to a site that is not trustworthy. The site itself says that all of its articles are fabrications.
