Mine tests for protein in the urine, not sure what else.  My OB with my daughter also tested my urine first thing every visit.

no, I have only had one urine test since I moved over from my fertility doctor.  I am 31 weeks.  Is that weird?  I wondered why I haven't had to do it, now I am going to worry about it.  I did have the glucose test, but that was blood-and negative.

You'll probably start the protein/sugar urine dip testing after you begin your standard monthly prenatal visits. 5 weeks is a little early yet. Congrats on your pregnancy!

Every single time and believe me, I can't even see that cup anymore.  I just hold it down there and hope for the best.  =)  They have to check for sugar and protein, I think.
