If your child is a Singapore citizen, u will save more. Cos there are the dollar to dollar top up which I used to offset my baby's infant care fees (Sparkletots is much cheaper than Pte Sch). It's enough for me through the 12months there. I breastfed. Got my dual pump from my friends as gift. Bought milk bags online that is so cheap. Diaper is cheaper at younger age. Less than $100 a month. Vaccination is mostly free in poly clinic. I think it's about the choice you made. Cos I brought my baby to Pte Sch, enrichment class and Pte clinic to do vaccination which costs more. As for the cost in the future, it depends on inflation. I am a working mum with no maid to help and I survived.
