I birthed in a whirlpool tub with dc#2 and the fishy pool with dc#3.  They were both fine.  The thing I liked about the tub was the jets.  Something about the humming noise of that was soothing to me.  With the...

I'd be disappointed too. And I'm a little surprised that she asked you you call with contractions only 5 minutes apart. For my second baby, I lived an hour from the birth center and they told me they wanted me to come when contractions...
