Does the positive result in CMV before pregnancy is to be worried about?

Not necessarily. If your IgM result was +ve, then yes you should be worried. You should go and talk to you doctor about what this means, but it indicates recent CMV infection which puts your baby at risk of congenital abnormalities. However, if you IgG was +ve, the infection was not recent and so you should not be worried. But be vigilant about your hygeine to avoid a second infection (as prior infection with CMV doesn't prevent you from catching it again), and also to avoid any other type of infection.

Now they are your problem. Remember to document their every move for court purposes.
