thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question, and for not being judgemental (unlike "LIZZIE LOU")

I think your husband's behavior is classified as zero risk. Your husband engaged in protected vaginal intercourse which is zero risk, even if his partner was HIV positive. Furthermore, even if he did somehow happen to contract it the risk of passing it on to you is small. Those factors combined make your risk zero. I think you're fine. If you are really worried about it you might consider getting tested, although I'm sure your results will be negative.
