Everything about time possibly moving faster or slower for literally anybody else is still speculation. No confirmation on how old Henry was when he called his parents for help, or how old Henry is now in Hyperion Heights. If they ever clarify either of those, it might help us place the rest. (Though if Emma was pregnant, she was likely still under/around 40 then....so real Hook and Regina not having aged as of 7x02 is also fine since it would've been less than a decade since we last saw them.)

I've even seen people speculating that Lucy isn't their biological child since they don't think 10 years will be passing in those NEF flashbacks. Which, I do think she's their child, but with all the other weird stuff that's not adding up yet, I guess I can't totally dismiss the theory lol. Drizella taking 10 years to cast the curse would indeed be strange, even more so considering it doesn't seem like a lot of time has passed between each flashback featuring the resistance group so far. Suddenly jumping 10+ years to Henry & Cinderella married with a kid by 7x10 is weird to imagine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



Emma would be 34 in the current timeline

It was confirmed by the writers it is 2017 in Hyperion Heights.

It was stated Emma had Henry at 18 Years Old and thus 18+16=34.

We also know that Henry didn't arrive in the Magical forest until Episode 1 when he first meets Jacinda. At this point he was already in his 20's.

Also there is still alot of Flashback material to go through. We see this Episode or next them going through a portal to another realm. Lucy could have been born there in which time moves faster. Regina and Hook could have remained in the Magical forest where time moves normally.
