We observed high CMV seropositivity in 18-month-old children in Botswana, with higher seropositivity among breastfed (HUU) children. Positive CMV serostatus was not associated with 24-month child growth or neurodevelopmental outcomes, with the exception of smaller head circumference among HUU CMV-positive children.
