Q: Pain In Pregnancy

Anyone ever have significant pain in pregnancy. I had two normal pregnancies and then within 1 week of finding out I was pregnant a third time I was experiencing great great pain. I went to the doctor several times and had ultra sounds and blood work and they never found anything wrong with me or the baby. The pain was so bad that if I sneezed or coughed while standing up I would colapse. I wound up going into pre term labor at 6 months and my son only lived for a short while. They did an autopsy and found nothing wrong with him either. They said he was just too small to survivie. I got pregant a fourth time and again I was in pain. This time I had a high risk doctor and I was put on bed rest at 5 months. I went into pre term labor again and this time I had a doctor that knew what she was doing and stopped the labor. I was labor free for a month and then I went into preterm labor again. Again my doctor was able to stop it. I remained on bedrest and brethene until two weeks before my due date. The pain was so severe through this last pregnancy that at times I could not even move. Again I had numerous tests. Ultra sounds, blood work, fetal monitoring and level 2 ultrasounds and there was never anything found. The doctor that cared for me through my third pregnancy only could come up with the suggestion that I was having uterine stretching pain but this pain was so severe and it lasted through the whole pregnancy.
My husband and I have always wanted a large family and we would love to have another child. But at this point we are very scared. Loosing our son changed us forever and there is no turning back from that. It was a big risk for our hearts to try for our fourth and although she is happy and healthy and with us here today the pregnancy was very long and difficult. Bed rest for 6 months with two other children to care for and preterm labor more then once we were scared we would loose her too.
We don't know if we would be stupid or messing with fate to try again.
We would love to know what is wrong with me first. Or if I should just not be carrying babies.
We chersih our children and can't bear the pain of loosing another one. Has anyone else experienced these problems in pregnancy?
