I didn't get a gift for any of my pregnancies, and I'm ok with that. DH will get me anything that I ask for, but I don't ask for much.

i've never gotten a gift from dh....but my ILs have given me nice jewelry with each baby.
I do not expect a gift from my DH because we're not really the type to get each other presents -- we prefer to use the $ for vacations and such. However, your post reminded me that my Dad gave my Mom a nice pearl necklace when I was born (in the south in the early 80's). They divorced when I was in elementary school, but she held on to it and gave it to me a few years ago. I haven't worn it, mostly because I haven't had the occasion to, but I do love it and will always keep it.
I think it's a great thing. I'd love a keepsake for having a child with my husband. My mom got gifts from my dad for each me and my sister, and my mom has already passed along to me the earrings she got when I was born. I intend to pass along whatever my husband gives me to my daughter.
