    No the GP's don't bother with another urine test if you've peed on a stick.

    Did have and will have urine tests through the public hospital midwife program I'm on though.

    I think they are meant to do one blood test for every STD under the sun too. Mine always has. But yeah, they don't do hormones if you've wee'd on a stick.

    First I had just HCG at about 5 weeks to confirm pregnancy - all other tests were done at the 10 week bloods for the NT test - and yes they have tested for every STD under the sun (HIV, Syphallis, Hepatitis) + Iron, Thyroid, Vitamin D, Blood Type, Haemotology, Rubella immunity. So GP referred me for all these this time and last time.
