I always did a basket of stuff for the Mommy to pamper herself -- bubble bath, lotion, nail polish, chocolate, romance novel, etc., using the theory that baby is going to be getting a lot of attention and mommy really could use some pampering. Just for fun, I always tuck in a pair of crazy socks for the delivery room -- dual purpose of keeping feet warm and providing something really crazy to laugh out or use as a focal point for breathing -- whatever works!
