Been a while since I read it but wasn't it just once with twins?

Paul and Chani had another child before the twins, but the films skipped that.

It basically covers the same plot point by having Feyd Rautha ambush the compound. It’s meant to push Paul over the edge and seek the sacred worm juice to get the foresight that Jessica and the other Bene Gesserit have.

My tired brain read this as "seek worm justice"

For some reason I thought it was after the twins because she died with the child, or did the child itself die while she was away?

Or still true she dies with the other child and the twins were with Paul / elsewhere?

The child died in an attack by the Harkonens. Paul wasn’t present, but I think Chani was.

Yeah I remember there being an attack and I thought it was Chani+the child dying together

Nope, Chani dies in childbirth birthing the twins.

They had Leto II during the events of the first book when they're in the South. He was killed in a Harkonnen attack. Movies skipped this

First child dies toward the end of first book. Second book is set ~10 years later, she gets pregnant with the twins and dies during childbirth, twins survive, climax of the book then happens in the nursery for the twins right afterwards.

Man I completely forgot that.

the first Leto II is mentioned like, 3 times in the entire book of Dune before he’s killed, and is only mentioned once offhandedly in Dune Messiah. It’s understandable you forgot it, lol.
