Being a dad means giving up the fantasy that you will be able to fix your wife's labor pains. Only the delivery of the baby can do that.

Kakashi hated seeing Iruka in pain. Pain didn't look good on Iruka's face. Iruka's face was to use to smiles and laughter, Iruka was only a chunin and never had to see as many things as a Jonin had. That was why Kakashi was detesting labor.

Iruka in pain sounded like an awful thing to see and it was even worse that what Kakashi had expected it to be. Iruka was so helpless and Kakashi wanted nothing more to stop the pain.

Plus, the quicker Iruka's pain was relieved the sooner Kakashi could feel his hand.
