It is dependent on the fathers race
changelings grow up seeming mostly whatever their father was (aside from heterochromia and little odd happenings) so it is safe to assume that they also age the regular way as their fathers race did
I think changelings are most likely a universal heritage instead of an ancestry in pf2, so for everything important you can look at the fathers race

Children of hags, destined to become hags themselves, changelings face a life of conflict. Born of supernatural creatures who kill and consume the child’s father, changelings are deposited into their father’s society to be raised.
You and DMW are correct.

They have been confirmed to be Universal Heritages in the APG.

Probably in the first edition it was so that hags cannot give birth because they are outsiders.
Hags aren't Outsiders and never have been. Night Hags specifically are, but they're only distantly related to other Hags, who are Humanoids in PF2, and were Monstrous Humanoids (a category PF2 got rid of) in PF1.
anyway they can. How long does pregnancy last and how long does the childhood period of chaneling take?
There are not, to my knowledge, any canonical references to gestation periods for hags.
As for the changeling's childhood, in PF1 where all Changelings were assumed to come from human stock they had the same base age as humans. With the conversion to a Universal Heritage, I presume they will now age at the normal rate for whatever their base Ancestry might be.

I haven’t come across that the Hags eat the father. I could see that being a trend that some do for different reasons. Is there a source you could point me towards that actually talks about this?
It's mentioned in the Changeling entry in the PF2 Bestiary, as well as their original description in Haunting of Harrowstone.
