During a prenatal visit at Sacred Waters Community Birthing Center in Eugene, Ore., Rachael Rothman worries that her baby hasn’t grown enough since her last visit. “I’m nervous,” she says. Midwife Anita Rojas replies, "I don’t want you to be nervous. Nervousness makes difficult births. Do you trust yourself? Do you trust me?” Rachael nods. “Then you don’t need to be nervous.” Feb. 6, 2007
