Killian is cursed. He goes through all the Hyperion Heights stuff and is uncursed. Upon becoming uncursed, he goes to find Emma, but is unable to for some reason. So he figures out a way to travel back in time to before he was cursed and runs into the past version of himself. Then he tells the past version of himself and Past Emma what is going to happen and that the future must stay in tact for some reason. Future Killian and Past Emma go home to Storybrooke while Past Killian is cursed and eventually becomes Future Killian. I think that Emma's pregnancy could be one of the reasons she goes home. Not because she's pregnant, but because her child is somehow important to what happens in the future and Emma can't be cursed in order for whatever needs to happen, happen. Not impossible and totally workable, but I feel that they'd use the message in the bottle macguffin to explain it. Even if the message is from the future...

Plus, time travel is hard magic, so I'd rather not trivialize it. (Because if Future Hook would change that, I'd think he'd spill the beans too.)
