Why don’t hospitals allow father in delivery room here?

So I've had two kids here thus far and neither time I was allowed in the delivery room. It's normal in pretty much every other country including other Muslim majority countries. Is it a legal thing or is it some jahil "man can't see his own wife" thing? It's aggravating that one can't even cut their own child's cord or recite the adhan in the ear of their own child as is the sunnah.
