Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.
About 85 to 90 percent of newborns with congenital CMV have "silent" infections, meaning that they have no symptoms at birth. The vast majority of these babies continue to do well and end up having no CMV-related complications. (Some of these babies — about 5 to 15 percent —develop problems later, most commonly hearing loss.)It can also cause miscarriage at sumtyms. So I will suggest you to consult with your obstetrician as soon as possible. Thank you.
