This uses theories and asects from Cado, 8Rob, Francis, and more.

Let's assume that WR was both spawned on Wish Day, which cast 30ish years of history to pass in one day. All prior memories to the Curse event are false, duplicated memories from their real versions.

Let's also use the premise that the finale maintains most of itself within the past, past SB, past WR, etc.

Wish Day is used to represent all the events leading to the casting of the failed curse (Which isn't necessarily a casting from FTL torder of events) and to Emma and Regina leaving WR.

If Wish Day was all in one day, then it could actually line up Ella's and Henry's ages. On Wish Day, Henry was 13 (or so). Ella was roughly 14 on Wish Day.

Then, post-Wish Day, all the realms can progress with equal timeflows which is very much possible.

The only anomaly is around Alice, really.

Thus:

Wish Day- Anastasia Tremaine is nearly killed by hypothermia, Nook gives birth to Alice, teen Henry is in SB.

Post-Wish Day- Ella (14) and  both Henrys (13) and Drizella (12) grow up into their respective selves along a continues time flow and age equally together.

It keeps genies from changing the past, which they cannot do, and offers another perspective than the thought that Ella was born after Henry and that the WR and NFTL and LWM all have different timeflows with undue fractions.
