Worrried my daughter has been exposed to HPV from a friend

Hi there
I'm very concerned about my 8 month old daughter being exposed to high risk hpv. I have found this forum to get some answers. I have visited doctors and talked to several nurses and Im not getting a answer and they even said they were unsure. My friend was dignosed with high risk type HPV and she has moderate cervical dysplasia. My concern is that when I was visiting her i left my daughter without a nappy after i realised i left my nappy bag at home. My friend who was wearing a very short nighty dress also Im pretty sure she had no under pance on. My concern is that when my friend was holding my 8 month old daughter in her lap facing genital to genitals. Im so worried that there was a genital to genital contact seem they both had nothing covering them.I havent slept for months worried about this incident. I feel like i was such a careless mother. I have read and read so much about HPV and it says hpv is passed through the skin to skin contact through the membranes.Im worried about they my daughter contracting the hpv on the cervix. I hope its through close contact through sex. Im so stressed and need to know my daughters chances. Shes now 2 years old so im just looking for a good explaination. What if she did contract it and they are too young to have paps smear and so worried it will progress to cervical cancer whens shes older. What I need to know is the virus just on the cervix or how does it spread. I would really really appreciate some answers. Sorry if it sounds like a strange questions. As a mother I want to keep my daughter safe.

I really wouldn't worry about your daughter contracting HPV, especially if your friends Hpv is way inside her, on her cervix. HPV is common, but gets really hyped up as well. You will drive yourself crazy if you worry about it all the time...so don't stress, and I'm sure everything will be just fine!

Not to jump on you kira and don't take it that way, but I might suggest to be on guard for how overly stressful mothering affects the well-being of the child.  If you act like this about a lot of things then your child is going to suffer somehow.  Borderline irrational fears and the ensuing reactions and behaviors will be learned by our little ones. Something to keep in mind as you attempt to tone it down and get a lid on anxiety.
