As long as the husband have cpf, then nothing much to worry. If count from start of labour go into hospital till go home. It is not that expensive. If natural birth, it will be cheaper. If Cesarean Section then if i remember correctly the bill is around 8k plus. This will include baby doctor as well. The 8k plus is for a 2 person ward. If single ward it is just 100-200plus more.

The cash u need to pay after minus medisave, should be around 2k or less. For my wife she go for Cesarean Section and total cash I give is 1.8k plus. Unless there is complication, and doctor need to use some "special" equipment to assist then it may be more ex.

Other cash which is not include is the check up during pregnancy. Per visit should range around 70-250. Depending on how much medicine u buy, test or scan that need to take.

The charges above is rough estimation but should be around there plus minus some dollar. If u need more detail billing then i can dig out my bill. Btw the price above is more private gyna and giving birth at Parkway Health group hospital.
