It sounds like you are, reproduction penalties can hit verrry hard. The environmental resist penalty hurts you too.

You might be able to save yourself in that game by researching planet utilization to get Conditions Modification Facilities. If the planet is already at Optimal though, you are screwed. Also if by any chance you're an organic race, build Medical Labs and eventually Replicant Facilities. Devnull might even have a non organic Version of either, I can't remember for sure.
