PS: I always thought it would have been better for her to die there. Anakin not realizing his own strength in his rage kills her and then blames Obi-Wan for bringing her with him. Babies are saved post-mortem.

Actually its funny because I forgot about this. In the novel, Obi-Wan was concerned about Anakin and went to talk to Padme who he thought was a friend of Anakin's to get her opinion on him.
Later on Palpatine was having a conversation about how the Senate was impeding the war effort, and he dropped the hint that a young Senator had a suspicious meeting with a Jedi. He didn't name names or anything like that. Just dropped this broad hint.
Anakin went to Padme's house and started picking up traces of Obi-Wan, and became jealous.
It wasn't like he suspected that Obi-Wan and Padme were doing Force Lifts in the bedroom. But he was paranoid about the Jedi Council finding out about his marriage to her and would actively try to break them up or separate them.
It goes back to how much control Palpatine had over every situation.
