You can think of reasons and suspend disbelief to support your theory that they share a birthday, but not the idea that someone was estimating age?

Perhaps Emma was 17 at Henry's birth, and rounds her age up to 18. ::Shrug:: really, in the long run, it's not that important. The 18 and 10 and 28 and Emma's birthday were tools to show us that Emma and Henry are connected, and Emma is the savior. I, personally, don't find that the actual dates are all that important.
