my new baby has cmv

[Woooozle100]

it was detected in his urine at 21 days old by chance during routine investigations into prolonged jaundice. Jaundice has now cleared, his liver is fine, as are eyes and brain (normal ct scan). His birthweight was fine. He is 5 weeks today.

Although all the signs are positive I'm still anxious and gutted. Can't believe we could be so unlucky
