A woman who has been given three divorces is not entitled to financial support from her ex-husband. However, if she is pregnant, then the husband is obligated to provide for her due to the pregnancy. This means that any expenses related to the pregnancy must be borne by the husband.
After childbirth, the financial responsibility shifts to the child, meaning the father must cover the costs related to the child's care, such as nursing wages, clothing, and other essential needs. However, after the child's birth, the father is not responsible for providing food for the mother.
Allah ﷻ states in the Qur'an:
"And if they are pregnant, then spend on them until they give birth."
[Surah At-Talaq: 6]
[Ibn Uthaymeen: Liqaa' al-Baab al-Maftooh, 19/147]
