When records are added to childEO, getRowCount do not get refresh properly

Question

Hi,
I have an AO between parent EO and child EO - OVRBrowseType . I wrote a business rule on parent EO at entity level. my validation is based on no of records in child EO. After creating the parent record and save, when I try to add 2 child records and save , the bellow validation is fired but, acctIter.getRowCount() returns 0 instead of 2. so it does not enter into the if condition. However if I open an existing parent record with 2 child records, update child record and save, the validation fires and the getRowCount() returns 2.
        public boolean validateBrowseTypeIssueDate() {
      RowIterator acctIter = this.getOvrBrowseType();
        Row bt = null;   
      System.out.println("debug0 in rowcount: "+acctIter.getRowCount()); 
      if (acctIter.getRowCount() == 2)
        bt = acctIter.first();
        System.out.println("debug1"+bt.getAttribute("BrowseType"));
        if (! "IssueDateBrowse".equals(bt.getAttribute("BrowseType")) )
          bt = acctIter.next();
          System.out.println("debug2"+bt.getAttribute("BrowseType"));
            if (! "IssueDateBrowse".equals(bt.getAttribute("BrowseType")) )
            return false;
        return true;
    }Please advise if there is an alternative way to access childEO from parentEOImpl.
Thanks, Pradeep

I have not tried the above suggestions but the problem is solved. The issue was - I had the requirement of creating a a default child record when the parent record is created. I was creating the child record using insert statement in Prepared Statement in the doDML of parent EOImpl. So it is not creating a row in the EO and when I add the second record through the application and save, the getRowCount returns 1 which is new record that created through application. Sorry for not providing this info earlier and Thank You all.
