The tense used there is wrong. Literally translated it would be: "when I heard she was getting married and has a beautiful baby"; which would be wrong in English as well.
<Since we broke it off I haven't seen her again, except for a couple of times when I heard she was getting married and had had* a beautiful baby>.

you nailed it, I was thinking the same thing but you made a such a good translation. your spanish is realy good
the next part should be,
-al sentarme a tomar un cafe en aquel lugar por Central Park,-
-upon sitting down to drink a cup of coffe in that place by Central Park,- or
-while sitting down to drink a cup of coffe in that place by Central Park.-
I think lizzey got the rest of it right.
and the part -after having spent so much water under the bridge-
I think is a metaphore for having talked about everything and anything, nothing personal. If you get me.
this is what I understood from the other sentence,
-"decepsionado, creo que estoy perdiendo el porque el maestro me llamo Perspectivo one."-
-disappointed,I think I am beginning to wander (doubt) why the teacher called me Perspective one.-
I think we need to see the context to understand the sentence.
Hope it helped
