rabbits breeding

Question
I've had so many rabbit, but never mated them.. i had two boys and my special one died, the other boy(Taylor) was sad and started getting mad towards me, so i decided to by him a new mate.. this time i brought him a girlfriend and they been inseparable since they have been together... a few months ago the girl got pregnant and i was unaware because she was only 14 weeks when i got her and never put on any weight.. unfortunately when i went to give them their afternoon feed i found 3 dead babies.. i was horrified... i now think she is pregnant again as she is acting the same as last time and today is look a bit sad... i just don't want to loose any babies again and have no idea what to do.. I'm going to try and split them tonight because i can't do it another time as she attacks a lot of them because she been pregnant.. and I'm worried if she has babies they will be premature because she only little still and if one of the babies are ill what shall i do keep it with my all the time? i can't let it die if this happens. and I'm really young so i sort out all my animals on my own because none else has a interest really in them... and him wondering where to keep her? would a pet pen be okay under my bed, so its nice and dark and quite... is this ok... him so over worried.. i wanted them to have babies but don't want her to be in pain or to loose anymore..

many thanks chelcie
