So Bendis seems to have pretty definitively answered the speculation on the possible daughter for Lois and Clark/sister for Jon. And it's what I've been expecting.

Question: "with the truth coming out next month will we get the full story of what happens to lois in space any time soon? Also did you just drop a hint in Superman that their is another super baby on the way? Possibly a girl?"
Bendis: "There are no super babies on the way! And lois is actively writing her book. We are respecting the writing process Unlike other movies and comics where someone goes to write a book and they’re done in three days. It’s actually taking her time to write her book :-)"
Bendis: "I see why some feel aging up jon was a dick move, I do. but aging him up and bringing in a new baby sister: THAT would be a dick move "
That reads as a fairly clear answer to me: no super babies in 5G. I said this was what I expected because Bendis spent basically all of the flashbacks in Man of Steel stressing pretty hard and often how special and unique Jon is, and how Lois and Clark having him in the first place was no minor miracle. Then later on in Action Comics 1014, Lois cites the fact that he kids is all grown up, and doesn't need to be monitored so closely anymore as one of the reasons that she gained this 'second wind'. And with the family dynamic being stretched out in such a non traditional way with Lois working out of Chicago and employing groups of detectives, and Clark on his way to becoming president of Earth and likely spending more time in space, it always felt like a second child never felt like the vibe Bendis was laying down. Plus, yeah, as he says, it'd be a dick move.

Also Jon and Conner will meet, but, as I speculated, it doesn't sound like it will be anytime soon.

I'm growing more and more sure that Conner won't meet Jon till he's Superman in 5G. And not only do I think a fairly significant line-wide timeskip will happen (thus facilitating the line-wide relaunch to #1s) but I'm also becoming more sure of Jon and Conner having an ideological divide.
But we will be seeing Conner and Clark meet long before then in 1020.
