The bloods dont normally get done until you are booked into the hospital at about the 12 to 20 wk mark. If there is no reason to check anything at this point, they wont.
Both times pregnant i have had hcg tests to check they are increasing, this is not mandatory though, depends on your dr. I do think its important to know the status of rubella immunity, sti check and iron levels, as well as blood group though, but thats just me. If you had all this checked while ttc then theres no need for it again. I would recommend calling to book into an ob asap, i booked into mine at 6w last time and got the last spot available, and she said it was unusual for her to still have places by then. Private obs book out quick. wishing you a h & h pregnancy
