So let's say it is several (shall we say 4) months after the end of season 1, which was February. That means Henry was 11 in June. Therefore born in June 2001 and conceived in September 2000. She's still 16.

However, this contradicts a lot. The writers said Emma and Neal were together "for a summer" so it would make sense for them to be together in July/August. Also, does 2x14 look like a June/July day? No it doesn't.

Henry could simply have been rounding up his age. Or the writers screwed up the math. As for the summer thing: On the wiki, the number one canon is the show, the show and nothing but the show. It trumps anything the show creators say. This does not mean that the show's timeline is perfect; it simply means that if show creators say something that is contradicted by the show, the wiki goes with what the show says. The show clearly contradicts the summer thing, which means according to the canon, they were not together for a summer. The show creators are humans. They are perfectly capable of saying things that are incorrect.
