Hi there,
The fact that Ig G is positive means that your wife is immune to CMV and will not affect the baby in any way so please be reassured that the baby will be absolutely fine and will not have CMV.
She should definitely continue the pregnancy and also, I do not think she requires the progesterone or the calcium, only Folic acid is enough.
Need not worry.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
