Do midwives have to be craft-ranked healers?

No. Many women are trained from their teens to assist other women in childbirth. Unless complications are expected due to maternal illness, age, or history, it is perfectly acceptable to have a non-craft midwife deliver her child. Non-craft midwives would never attempt a surgical delivery, unless it was to save a child as the mother died from an inability to deliver.
