So if it happened beacuase Rumple was born, it would only make sense if when Emma was born the candles extinguished (and I remember the room was lit, unless it wasn't candles), but if there weren't any candles or lights when Emma was born then it would make sense.

Otherwise, the writers are just ignoring Emma's birth scene (which they should be better than, seeing as they constantly go back to previous scenes).
