Kind of yeah, but only kind of. In practice the relationship of Anakin and Padme doesn't make sense for Padme at any point in the movies, and the relationships of Padme and Obi-Wan is barely explored.
That one scene on Mustafar is pretty much the only moment where we see this dynamic at work.

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.

Yeah I think that would have worked.
But then again you can point to almost anything in the prequels and say "this would have been better if done like this". They're just those kinds of movies.
A shame really. Those prequels could have been solid movies with competent directors and some more competent writers giving the the script a do-over.
