My husband and I have just moved over and found out I’m pregnant.

We’re not sure how things will work with medical aid as we haven’t yet switched over.

He is a Mauritian citizen and I’ll get residency in a few weeks as we have applied.

Does anyone know cost of child birth in Apollo or Daren without medical cover?

Appreciate anyone’s help in advance!

Xx
