Hi thank you for your question
i think that you are inform that CMV may be trasmitet at the fetus during the pregnency.babys borned from a mother with CMV are testit for the posibility of infection,so your baby is testet for cmv so if he had any kind of problems you wil be informed.the some for the results of triple test they showed risk for that syndroms but your baby has born helthy and without problems as you said.the only thing i can say for you is stay in contact with your pediatrician and follow his advices
good luck for you and your baby
