Free will is free will, but I can tell you from personal experience that a woman in labor is not often in her right mind. She is in a VERY vulnerable position. In this case, she no doubt feared some kind retribution for going against his wishes, and in labor she probably COULDN'T sneak sway, or even walk.
He chose not to be a man and take care if his vulnetable and pregnant wife, and it cost him. It's just that simple.
