I know in the original fairy tale, Rapunzel's mother (which I think was a commoner) was pregnant in her home, and noticed that her neighbor (the witch) had some rapunzel (herbs), and the mother suddenly had a fierce craving for them. The father stole some from the garden to give to the mother.

After that, the craving developed to be more fierce, and the father went out to steal more rapunzel. (OMG, this sounds funny) The witch caught him, and the father explained that his wife would die if she didn't have more. And then, the witch agreed that he could take some, if he gave her the baby.
