Emma is not returning this season. We knew this months ago and frankly, it does not seem to be changing. If she isn't in the season end, then clearly you won't see her child. (Plus, I think the gang are in some weird time distortion anyway.)

I think Colin still being on the show was the main reason why people had thought it was still a possibility. You don't need to show a child with both of its parents. But I doubt we'll see the real Hook again either - they want the focus to be on Wish Hook's story. And Snow and Charming are looking less and less likely even though the actors would most likely still be on board.

It's because it wouldn't make sense to have Snow and Charming back but not the rest of the family. As for Emma's unlikely return... I agree, but what if it's gonna be the series finale? In that case, I would hope they change their minds (including Jen) and bring her back. Only IF the series ends.

The other answers... aren't even answers. I'm sick of this can't say, but they at least shot down some theories... as well as my hopes, lol.

I don't think we need to see Emma or Hook to see Snow and Charming, they are both adult couples, they don't have to be around each other 24/7. They can do something as easy as saying Emma and Hook went to Boston to deliver her baby or something, or that they are on a vacation, or that she is working. Basically, I think we could easily work Snow and Charming into one episode, without the need for Emma and/or Hook.
