I know you didn't explicitly state it, but I was envisioning the husband as having electrodes and things hooked up to him... which kinda made me go "huh?" after the initial delivery of the punchline... then... "oh."

The joke would probably be served by some sort of setup that keys the listener in to the fact that machine can work no matter where the father is... maybe have them agree to use the machine after an explanation on a previous visit to the OB/GYN, letting the father know it'll work even if he can't make it to the delivery.

Then the day of the delivery comes, and he's able to make it after all... could probably use some reworking, but I think it's important to the joke.
