We dont have any health insurance right now and im 8 weeks. Thoda tension ho raha hai about the whole expense, scans, doc visits, delivery sab milake. Can someone who paid out of pocket tell me roughly kitna lagta hai?
Oh god, don't even ask! Between diaper costs now and those endless bills earlier, my bank account is crying lol. But seriously, keep at least 1 lakh aside just to be stress-free.
I am in my 5th month now and honestly getting so worried seeing the scan bills already. Is anyone else also getting tensed about the final hospital package? It feels so expensive.
Entering 9th month and my wallet is already lighter than my baby weight haha! But seriously, private room packages are quite high, so ask your hospital for a clear estimate sheet now itself.
With my PCOS history, I had extra tests and hormonal support which added to the cost, so it varies. Just take it step by step and keep a buffer amount, safety comes first.
According to my trackers, the scans, tests, and doc visits alone can go up to 30-40k easily before delivery. The actual hospital stay depends on govt vs private, so better start budgeting early!
Since I had thyroid, my blood tests and doctor checkups were very regular, which costed a bit extra. Please do not skip your routine visits just to save money, regular checkups are a must.
