Opinions needed. When sure I take baby care class?

I can either take the baby care class a month and a half before my due date (at exactly 33 weeks).

OR in the last month of my pregnancy at 38 weeks.

When would be better for me to take it?

OR i can take it at another hospital at 37 weeks.

I am thinking if I wait it will be more fresh in my mind...but what If I go early, then I might miss the class. Plus who knows how I will feel at that point and if I will even feel up to taking a class at that point. What do you think? Is 33 weeks too early? will I still remember what I learned?

I am also taking lamaze, breastfeeding and the hospital tour all in the last month of my pregnancy.

Opinions??

I would def do the 33 weeks!...I was 30 weeks when I went, there was a girl there who was 38 weeks and she was so uncomfortable sitting there all day. Its a lot of information, but you learn alot from here too!

Yeah, you are probably right.

Also, I am taking Lamaze at almost 36 weeks, Hospital tour at 36.5 weeks, and Breastfeeding at 35 weeks. Is that crazy of me to take them all so far along? Do you think I will regret it? I didnt register yet, but I am planning on it today.

How long are the classes? Hour wise? I mean I dont think your gonna regret it, but I am just thinking comfort wise sitting there for how many hours, the L & d tour should be fine at 36.5 weeks and BFing @ 35 too, just concerned about you sitting in the lamaze class for 8 hours. You do get up and stuff, but that poor woman was so uncomfortable getting on the floor to do the breathing and stuff.

the lamaze is from 9-5. I wanted to take it in April but DH and I already booked our babymoon for that weekend. And the other time it is offered is the day of my shower.
