Water Birth at Coral Springs

I am currently preparing to be either at West Boca or Bethesda east because that is where my current OB/GYN goes I never really thought to use anyone else. But where I am they don't agree with water birth or even sitting in the tub while contracting (the OB, they say the hospitals don't provide, I have not toured). This was really important to me, I have Crohn's and I always used the tub to help with intestinal blockage pain before going to the hospital etc. It is just something I am comfortable with. Also, I told them I wanted to have a slightly reclining position and not so much of a almost laying on your back. When I asked my OB (not midwife, who I could get if she is on call) said "well I have delivered many babies this way and it is successful." I am just put off by this and was just wondering if it is worth driving 30 minutes to Coral Springs or if I should stay more local. IDK I feel I should go where I feel comfortable but it is a schlep (drive, haul).
