Bad news is even you go government now, they may not have place for 0804 too, I guess to be safe, you'd better also find out now to see which govn't hospital still open and then you register.
Hopefully afterwards you find place in private one.
But actually when I first see my private doctor, he has reminded me to queue on private and pay for deposit if I prefer...wonder why yours not telling you in advance??
Alternatively you can find some other doctor who 掛單 in other private hospital which still have vancancy....
Is it depend on which private hospitals? My doc said it needs to reserve a place (as far as I know for Baptist & St. Teresa) first and pay deposit when reach 24 weeks.
mother 30, do the hospital accept waiting list? You can see if someone redraw and not pay the deposit when they reach 24 weeks.
