Hey,

It isn't compulsory, but I'd definitely get the first set of bloods done, as well as the 20 week anatomy scan and glucose testing later in pregnancy. These things check for any problems, and while hopefully there won't be any, if there are they could save you or your baby's life. So def worth it in my opinion, esp since there are no known risks. :)
