delivery & confinement costs

Just want to seek an opinion from all experience mummies. Who pays for the hospital/delivery charges, confinement food, massage, etc? Your husband fully or half half or etc? Would like to know your thoughts about this! Thxxx!

We have a joint bank account and we just “claim” all the fees under the account. So apparently everything is paid half half between ourselves

Husband pays all and be at every appointments. I am already going through internal and external changes, cant be doing it all. 🤭

I think this is an agreement between a couple, my husband paid for most items as he can claim under company insurance

My husband paid for hospital bills and any major expenses. I take care of the daily consumables and monthly household bills.

same as me, husband pays for major expenses, I take care of small ones like milk powder and diapers, cannot trust the men to keep track of when these things run out!

For confinement food i’m paying as it was my choice to have it. The rest would be hubby paying.
