Answer: she thought that witchcraft and the supernatural were to blame for the deaths of her unborn children

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Crucible, Mrs. Ann Putnam accuses Rebecca nurse of witchcraft because she was having a had time explaining why she lost seven of her children to death before they were even born.

She decided that it was witchcraft that was the cause and because she was jealous of Rebecca Nurse, accused her of being the witch. The families were also at the time locked in a property dispute.
