Blood tests and Butterflies

So after four tests I think I'm accepting that's it's actually happened! I'm going to ring the doctors tomorrow. From last period it puts me at five weeks. Do they always do a blood test to check or just trust what you say?

I have to have a 6-8 week scan to check it's implanted correctly due to having had surgery on a Fallopian tube.

Did or does anyone else feel like they have butterflies? Like the feeling you get when you're normally nervous. That's the feeling I have. But it also feels like when my period wants to start. It's horrible every time I go for a wee now because I'm hoping for no blood.

Congratulations OP! When I'm pregnant that's exactly how it feels - as if my period is about to start, but doesn't.

IME they will trust your last period date, not do a blood test.

Tom is a bank hol if you are in UK, so you won't get doc until Tuesday.
