[|AI|]  Hi there, Please do not be worried. To have a strongly positive avidity means that you have had the infection before and very unlikely that you will get it again during pregnancy. Having had CMV infection before makes it safe for the pregnant women as once infected she develops immunity to the CMV and will not be infected again. The harm from CMV is when the pregnant women acquire a new infection during pregnancy and this can affect the fetus, but since you have had it before this makes it very safe for your baby. So do not worry and regarding CMV infection as your baby is safe. Hope I was able to clear your doubts. Regards.
