Padme's Fate / Yoda vs. Sidious - Padme is basically in a coma from the time that Anakin chokes her until she eventually dies. The children are "born" near the end of this sequence. And yes, Yoda vs. Sidious and Yoda "not having his best day" is very much a Episode III reality. Keep in mind, it is a shorter scene than most are thinking."
According to TF.N Messageboards (Titus' fan novel) and confirmed by Josh... Obi takes a dying Padme to Polis Massa (in the Dagobah system?) to give birth. Bail meets him there.

OKAY! Here we go! I was hesitant to release this in the fashion that I am because I didn't want to skip ahead so far in the story, but Josh and I agreed that this is the way it should be because it was, afterall, and EXCLUSIVE for the Fan Novel.
FYI--the following is a small snippet of a future chapter in the Fan Novel. Within is revealed the spoiler. I'm sure you will be able to pick out the name.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eyes filled with worry, Obi-Wan leaned forward in the pilot's chair with his elbow propped up on the cockpit's console, bearded chin resting on his hand. He peered at the small display screen as the list of systems scrolled by. Then, one name in particular caught his eye. He pushed a button to stop the scrolling and leaned in close, inspecting the name for some time. He'd heard of the planet before, but couldn't place just where.
He began scrolling through the planet’s profile, and became more and more certain that this was where they should go. Moreover, something in the Force told him that this was where they should go.
He clicked the comm. back on. "Meet us on Polis Massa," he said.
There was a slight pause on the other end as Bail checked for the planet’s location in his own files, and then, "Right. We'll see you there."
"And Bail...?" Obi-Wan said, his tone grave. "I think you'd better hurry."
Saddened silence.
Then, "...Understood."
Obi-Wan clicked off the comm. and slowly sank back into the pilot's chair, his troubled thoughts dwelling on a future that seemed void of light.

Just wanted to get my own thought in on this one. Wouldn't it make sense for Palpatine/Sidious to kill Padme. In ROTJ OB1 says " The Emperor knew as I did, if Anakin were to have any off-spring, they would be a threat to him". To me that makes sense that Palpatine would be a good choice to kill her off. Then maybe blame the Jedi or Count Dooku for her death.
