Classes, when are you taking?

I am planning on taking 3 different classes offered at my hospital-  Childbirth, Breastfeeding and Baby Care.  When are you guys planning on taking your classes?  I know it is early now, and I want to retain as much info for when the time actually comes, but I know the classes do get booked up, and some take a few weeks.  I know the bumps checklist is saying research and sign up for classes is overdue for me, but I don't want to do it too early.

    We are taking Lamaze, Baby Care Basics, Breast Feeding and Save a Baby. They came as a package deal at our hospital. I signed up for them a few weeks ago because when I called to get more information, I was told that the classes fill up fast and some are already full. I signed up for them at or around the recommended time so the Lamaze class is towards the end of January and the others are March/April.

    I just asked my doctor about this today. He said sign up early, but take them between weeks 28-35.

    I hope to sign up for mine in the next couple of weeks. The plan is to take them at the end of February, and we are going to take Childbirth and Newborn basics.

    I plan on asking my midwife in Jan at my next apt when I should sign up. However I am only taking a sibling class with the boys and first aid.

    I'm taking Breastfeeding and Lamaze/Childbirth.  Both are in March, so about 2-2 1/2 months before I'm due.  I scheduled a couple weeks ago and got all my first choices on dates.  I don't know if I was just early or if the classes here don't fill up as fast.

    I just signed up for all my classes.  I am taking them in March and beginning of April.  I am glad I went back to the hospital site and checked this out after reading what others are doing- I was able to get my classes, but there were not many options left.  Thanks for all the advice.

    We're signed up for the general childbirth/hospital class in March and I'll probably take the following breastfeeding class in April. Sign up now and see what is still free.

    I also mean to check out some La Leche League meetings around then.

    We're taking baby care basics and breastfeeding the middle of March and a hospital tour the beginning of April.  I'm due May 9.
