Isabella just gave birth in January. Also, why the bias against Anne Boleyn?

Seconding the question: What’s your issue with Anne Boleyn? This timeline is entitled Anne Boleyn Victorious - A Collaborative Timeline
March-July 1537
March 1537: Having given birth to a stillborn son a month earlier, Anne is stunned to still feel a baby moving inside her. Realising she must have been carrying twins, Dr Linacre orders her to remain on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy.
April 1537: Anne gives birth to a healthy, if small, second son, whom she names George after her beloved brother. She surrenders her Welsh manors to him and he is created Duke of Pembroke at his baptism. His godparents include the Duchess of Ferrara and the Marquis and Marchioness of Dorset.
July 1537: Charles V marries the 15-year-old Anna of Lorraine in Aachen Cathedral.

May 1537-February 1538
May 1537: James V and Madeline de Valois wed. By the end of the month she is pregnant.
August 1537: Negotiations for the betrothal young Prince Henry to Jeanne of Navarre fizzle. Henry VIII just can’t get over the age difference. Instead he turns his attention to young Elizabeth de Valois.
The birth of young George has brought Henry and Anne back together. A very pregnant Jane is sent away from court, though Jane FitzRoy is sent to join her half siblings.
September 1537: Jane Seymour goes into labor, after 28 hours of labor gives birth to a daughter that will be named Dorothy FitzRoy. Jane falls into a fevered sleep and never wakes again.
December 1537: around Christmas, inspired by the celebration of the birth of Christ, and from reading the selections of the Bible in English Martin Luther sent (I changed it to selections since full translations take forever), Anne persuades Henry advocate on behalf of William Tyndale, and after some political machinations, Tyndale is sent back to England where he resumes his bible translation in luxury.
February 1538: Madeleine de Valois, Queen of Scotland gives birth to a little girl. The new Scottish princess is named Madelyn in her mother’s honor.

You just skipped nine entire months, plus Anne was not the only one pregnant in March...
