transmitting hpv orally

[madreof4]

My husband and I have hpv.  I have read on the forum that the odds of contracting hpv orally is slim to none.  But can we transmit it to our children via kissing or sharing drinks or by breastfeeding?

I also want to know if we can give our children HPV through sharing drinks, hugging and kissing them, or by breast feeding.

Genital HPV is considered an STD because it can only be acquired through sexual contact.  If you and your husband both have HPV, it is almost certainly a genital infection - oral infections are rare.  You can't transmit a genital infection to another person through kissing or sharing drinks.
