Still 3rd trimester not much expenses. Since you are required to follow-up at your local Klinik Kesihatan, you might as well continue doing the check-up there if want to save money on private check-ups. Big chunk of the expenses goes to delivery and buying baby things.

I know having first child will be an roller coaster ride, but either one of the parents should really track the expenses and eliminate all unnecessary purchases
