“Why Not Home? is a thoughtful look at complex issues. It’s down to earth style puts a human spin on the contentious topic of home birth. I hope that every expectant parent, as well as medical and nursing students see this film. There is something for everyone in this beautifully done film.” — Robin Elise Weiss, PhD, MPH, LCCE and President of the Lamaze Board

“Why Not Home captures the beauty of natural birth in a way that is so hard to articulate. It shows inspiring stories of how medical professionals can collaborate to make birth better, and how women can be empowered in the process. Medical professionals and women need to see this film because it demonstrates what some of us already know, low risk birth should be considered simple and normal.” — Jessica Taylor Goldstein, MD Family Medicine Obstetrical Care Provider and Resident Educator
