Brief Answer:
Breastfeeding is essential

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health care magic.

The reports indicate that you had suffered from CMV infection sometime in life. It is not a cause for concern (assuming that your child is otherwise ok). There is no danger about breastfeeding and you need not worry about the same.
