A friend recently lost a baby after contracting cmv. I wasn't around her much when she got and for some time after (saw her after she lost the baby).

I'd never heard of cmv so didn't know much about it. I'm now 10 weeks pregnant and I'm terrified I may have contracted it from her or through my daughter who often plays with her son.

I found my previous blood tests from when I was pregnant with my daughter and it said I was not immune and had no antibodies present. I know this is not good, particularly as I'm in the early stages of pregnancy. This pregnancy they did not test for cmv for some reason. Pregnancy number 2 I have been really tired and had a sore throat for a week or so, which I know can be attributed to a lot of common pregnancy symptoms, but they are also symptoms of cmv.

There's a chance I guess I may have cotten cmv since the bt with my first pregnancy so wouldn't affect this pregnancy, but my mind is going overdrive on the possibility that this may not end well at all.

I had a scan with my ob a few weeks ago and we saw the heartbeat. I mentioned the cmv and asked if I should get tested and she said that the results aren't always conclusive and if there is cmv it may not reliably tell us when it was contracted. She wasn't keen to get them done for this reason. At this point I didn't know about my previous negative test for cmv so didn't obviously mention it.

I left a message for her on thus to see if it changes things and am waiting for the call back, but wondering if anyone has any advice? I am sick with worry and just don't know what to do.

Sorry for the long post - I'm just really scared right now
