Emma and Storybrooke share Sunday, October 23, 1983.

Henry was born on Tuesday, October 23, 2001.

This is based on the time structure set up in the pilot episode by the writers and finally confirmed in "Welcome To Storybrooke"

Any questions you have about how time works in Storybrooke feel free to ask me. How's that "annual reset" theory you had and were so adamant about? Oh yeah... disproven :D

I know how you got to your "Henry was born on the same day" theory, that it's based on assuming hard facts about a soft timeline, but did you ever stop to think that you're reading too far into it? :) They're going to advance Henry's age as they need to to keep up with Jared's aging, which will probably start to be obvious soon. And like utter said, Emma's age doesn't matter so much, nobody's does, really, other than to establish a few facts (being that Henry is her son and Neal's based on time passed.)
