It's more than that. Diapers, one off items like baby bottles are some things that come to mind, but major cost will still be daycare. Good thing though is I get to save on other things like crib, playpen passed down from my older child.
Not to the point of starving, but for sure need to sacrifice on leisure stuffs, vacation and maybe even cuti2 Malaysia also can no longer afford. Early 30s

A maid with min wage is 1.7k. Bringing the maid in is 15-20k (one time)

Costs related to birth which are non-mandatory: A caesarean in private 10-15k. Confinement 20-30k. Confinement lady is lower 5-10k you provide the ingredients. But since you have not mentioned these I'm assuming these aren't issues (government hosp; in laws/parents)

I understand not wanting a child after a certain number (though I do not understand childless marriages) but even contemplating having to abort a child once it has been conceived because of lifestyle sacrifices (read: not needs)...
