At times your midwife can be helpful & refer you to a local one, but it also helps if you could do some research on-line. "just google free antenatal classes" in your area and you might be able to find a place much quicker.

I rang the midwife led unit in the hospital to nook mine. I think they started at 34 weeks. I would recommend them for first time parents and you get to tour the labour suit.

My midwife gave me a list of dates with a contact number at around my 24 week appointment so I gave the centre a call and booked myself on.

Ok thanks everyone.. I'm due Nov but no a few ppl who left it late in my area... Late as being the norm for everyone else and not able to have classes as no spaces available... I will see what I can get off my midwife and look on line x

they usually say u shud have them between 6-10 weeks before, but yeh my midwife sorted mine out for me at 25 weeks and am due in sept and have mine in august so yeh just bring it up with the midwife and see how u go about it, whether she will do it or u do it so at least u know when the time comes to sort it out u know who will be doing it.

What?? Free antenatal classes? If you could please give details. I don't know the NHS system here. Not a national or citizen of UK so don't know what to do. Is antenatal class free for everyone? If yes then is it free only if midwife books you in.? Have searched it over the internet but didn't fond anything relevant. I am 21 wks 3 days. Am i late for booking of classes?
