Cold sore

Hi, I am currently having cold sore on my lips and accidentally kissed my 5 month old baby’s back of head. What’s the chance of transmission? Read articles and reports that scares me, but also some that says baby would be immune to it because of maternal antibodies? Worried and confused.

The chances are really low since it’s not direct contact with his mouth but do monitor your baby.
