Generally speaking it is not specifically "Bad Luck," however, it is considered "pushing your luck" to give an expectant mother a Mother's Day gift.
The old traditions thought bring attention to a pregnant woman wasn't good. They even sequestered women (called a laying in) during the last month, or so, of her term.
Part of this was because pregnancy, labour, delivery and the first month of a baby's life were dangerous times, not so much due to "evil spirits" but a general lack of health care.
The card companies now carry a "Mom-to-be" card and if the pregnancy is in the final trimester with no complications, you might like to do something to help her celebrate.
However, even in this time of modern medicine, women do still have complications and infants sometimes do not survive. A Mother's Day card/gift that comes before the child always risks being a future reminder of a tragic event.
