Pre-worrying about him forgetting my birthday

I've got a bad case of what my H calls "pre-worrying."
My birthday is coming up this weekend - last year he forgot it, which was particularly crushing, as I had just found out a month earlier about some infidelities on his part - I felt horrible. He had never forgotten my birthday before.

Anyway, I am trying to be proactive this year - I have made plans for my birthday (treating myself to an art class) just in case he forgets again. What else can I do to handle this in a mature way? I know I will be devastated if he forgets again. This has been a very very hard year for our marriage.

Is this something I should set boundaries/consequences for? What should I do if he forgets again?
