ORIGINAL POSTER
Is it possible to do the marriage visa extension/renewal without my wife, if I have a letter from her hospital?

My marriage visa extension expires on the 27th November, I put the 400,000 into my bank on the 18th as I got the date wrong, I believe I can still do the extension on the 19th November as that will be two months and I'll just get a stamp staying I return on the 20th December. The issue is that my wife is due to give birth on 21st November, if I am "lucky" I'll have to go to immigration with a 9 month pregnant wife, however I can see a scenario where my wife gives birth early and can't go to immigration, do people think I can go in with a letter from the hospital explaining why she can't come in?

The user anticipates a potential conflict between the visa renewal date and the birth of their child, prompting this question.

Two months prior should be fine and you should assume that the IO’s are human enough to understand your personal situation here.
