So, this is some rough musings for a timeline I'm planning in the future, where Charles I and Henrietta Maria have sons born in 1626 and 1628, instead of their otl dates of birth.

Anne of Austria had a very unfortunate history of pregnancies until Louis XIV and Philippe, Duke of Orleans were born.

My question is this, if this was the order of successful pregnancies what would change and who could the children marry?

Louis (b. 1626)

Anne Marie (b. 1631)

Philippe (b. 1638)

Elisabeth (b. 1643)


And if this went along with the following for Philip IV:

Maria Eugenia of Austria and Spain (b. 1625)

Isabella Maria Theresa of Spain (b. 1627)

Balthasar Carlos (b.1629)

Francis Ferdinand (b. 1634)

Maria Theresa of Spain (b.1638)


What would be the logical marriages for France and Spain in this scenario?
