OK, maybe it's just me (and maybe I'm just really old school), but I find it difficult to believe that a script would be written with the 'F'-bomb the way this was presented. Seeing something like this would make me question the veracity of the leak. Particularly since Once is a family show, I would hope that the writers take opportunites to refrain from dropping such bombs, even in the non-dialogue parts of the script. But that's just me.

That being said, I am not surprised that Belle would know the gender of her unborn child. It's not that hard to find out the gender of a child before it's born, it happens all the time. And would probably be easier with Magic. Who knows, maybe Belle got hold of Snow's charm that predicts the gender of your firstborn before you even get pregnant. Point being, knowing the gender is not that big a deal.

And, if the leak is valid (I still have my doubts, personally), it is an encouraging sign. It means that they haven't superspeeded the pregnancy (yet), and they are also not moving time forward too quickly (though I still hope for something 1-2 weeks advancement with each episode). And, let's face it, Emilie has lots of practice at being pregnant for the better part of a season on a show (Claire was pregnant most of the first season of LOST).
