The new documentary, Why Not Home? tells the stories of doctors, nurses, and midwives who are making the choice to have their babies at home. These professionals work in hospitals and have attended hundreds of births in that setting. Through the experiences and questions of these women, both in their homes and in their hospitals, we gain insight into the experience of childbirth in America.
Great Expectations is a sponsor of the North Texas premiere of this movie and our vision is to start a conversation about options and about the ways each woman has to evaluate things like risk, comfort and safety for herself and her baby. However, we want to look at these big questions while having fun and fostering community. Each ticket includes champagne, pictures on the red carpet, live music after the film and some yummy munchies. Willhoites will also be there the whole time serving up a full bar of your favorite drinks. This event is a great event to use as a date night, GNO or to network with those who care about maternity care and women in our community. We would love to see every OB, pediatrician, nurse, doula and midwife to show up and get to know each other!
Why Not Home? is being shown in the historic Palace Theatre on Main Street in Grapevine. The Palace is gorgeous art deco and we will be able to enjoy drinks, desserts and music on the open patio throughout the evening. Doors open at 6:30. We can’t wait to see you there!
When: Friday, May 13th
Where: Palace Theatre, 300 S. Main, Grapevine, TX

Attire is dressy – but that might look like jeans and heels to some and cocktail dress to others. (Great Expectations is doing cocktail dresses, our clients won’t recognize us since they usually see us at 3am and a bit less formal!)
