I agree! I’m just saying instead of just dying, Padmé could be given a choice between saving her own life or saving her children for actual medical reasons.

Haemorraging, placenta praevia, I don’t know exactly but I’m sure there have been moments where a mother would have to make such a decision in the delivery room.

For example, maybe what Anakin did to Padmé hurt her physically and induced the pregnancy prematurely. But because of Padmé’s condition, there’s a high risk giving birth now could kill her. They could either not risk Padmé’s life and let her miscarriage, or go through with it and try to save the babies.

“Having this operation now could kill her, but she wants to continue in order to save the babies.”

Does that make sense? We’re just addressing that there was a difficult decision that Padmé had to make.

Most edits cut out the “losing the will to live” line regardless. Her dying in childbirth for medical reasons is a given in most edits. I’m just saying that let the risky childbirth be presented as a clear choice between her children’s lives and her own in order to give Padmé a final moment of agency in a film where she barely has any.

EDIT: Padmé wasn’t in a stable condition, but if her babies don’t come out now, they’ll die. But if she goes through with the operation now, it could kill her. Just presenting a basic choice that gives Padmé one last decision to make that has a greater impact on the entire saga. She could have waited and lived, but by sacrificing her own life to save her children, she’s allowed hope for the future to survive.
