Good thing this isn't a funeral then and instead is the birth of their child. It's stressful and painful, sure, but it's supposed to be a joyful event.
You have apparently never attended a birth. Joy comes when everything is done. Before that it's a few hours of grueling pain, often accompanied with heavy injuries like a perineal tear. As in, vagina and vulva ripped up to the asshole.
That's not joyous and definitely not a place for dumb jokes that you'd expect from a school kid, not from a grown adult who's sole purpose on being there is to provide support.
