I think that Ji Yeon cannot be portrayed as Jin's child when the Oceanic 6 are rescued. There is proof to this below.
Let us start with the following quote from the episode “D.O.C.”. This is the episode where Juliette takes Sun down to The Staff to determine if it is Jin’s child or not.
Juliette - “OK, you crashed here ninety days ago. The baby was conceived about eight weeks ago, so around fifty three days. You got pregnant on the Island.”
This tells me that the baby was conceived around the 37th day or so on the island. The approximate date of conception would then be around October 29th, 2004, right? So, 9 months down the road from then would be July 29th, 2005. This would be a good ballpark date for Sun’s flashforward and the birth of Ji Yeon, given the normal length of pregnancy for women, right?
But, there is one thing I do not understand. If these dates are correct, then who does the public think is the father of this child? It can’t be Jin. He has supposedly been dead since 9/22/04 according to his tombstone.
If Sun tried to play it off to the public that the baby is Jin’s she would have to say that the baby was conceived before 9/22/04 when Jin was alive. She would then have to deliver the baby within 8 months of the real conception for this to be believable. I don’t think so.
What is Sun going to tell the public? She is going to have to say that she got pregnant on the island for the delivery date to make any sense. And it couldn’t have been by Jin because everyone thinks he died in the crash.
Many people have said that Jin is one of the two that survived the crash but didn't make it off the island. And that the tombstone was constructed before the O6 were discovered. But if this were the case, wouldn't Sun have a date of death on the tombstone? I saw a date of birth for her, but a date of birth and death for Jun. This indicates that the tombstone was constructed after the O6 were discovered and that the public does think Jin died in the crash. This supports that he is not one of the two that survived the crash and also supports the above theory that the baby cannot be played off as his.
Right now, I think all roads are leading us to believe that Hurley is playing it off to the public as the father of this child. I think that is why he came to visit. I think that is why he gave the sinister “gooood”. And I think my head is hurting from all this thinking.
