Christening/Birth Spoons

[Mark Hoenig]

When my sister and I are were born, my great-aunts (mors farsterna?) bought us silver christening spoons, that had a clock with date and time, and a scale with the birth weight, as well as our names.  Is this still a tradition in Sweden?  Does anyone know a place to recommend of where to order these, or an idea of what they should cost?  I would like to get one for my newborn baby daughter.  Tack så mycket!

Mark!
A Google-search for Dopsked gives a lot of firms offering these spoons (engraved).
Here just one: http://www.matsilver.se/Dopskedar.asp?gclid=CNHknsLjxJUCFQ9KQgoduyrPjQ

Thank you!  When I googled in English, the closest I found were the License plates offered by the post office -- which are also very tempting.  Not knowing the Swedish term was a hindrence.
