Smile Spay questions

I'm going to have my Bella spayed soon. She is 34 weeks old tomorrow. My vet wanted to spay her back before Christmas but I didn't set up the appointment as I wanted to wait to see if she got any bigger first.

I'd say she's probably from 2.5 to 3 pounds right now. I'm really nervous about having her put under the anesthesia. I've been reading some information about this and I guess I wanted to post so that I don't miss anything.

I know that he will do laser surgery and he says that this will make her recovery easier. I know that they should only use iso or sevo anesthesia. I also know that I should have blood work done before her spay.

Should she have all the blood work done or just the CBC?
I looked at this link
BLOOD-TEST-EXPLAINED
I'd like to know so that I can talk to the vet and make sure that he's doing the right thing and that he's aware.

Is there anything else that I should ask the vet to do/make sure he's doing?

Also, I'm going to be having my mini-dachshund spayed at the same time. She's 30 weeks old and weighs about 10-12 pounds. Should I request the same bloodwork for both?

Thanks so much for your help!
