Infection is related to the number of viral or bacterial particles (the "dose") so a single exposure would be less likely than multiple exposures over time. There is a very, very small risk, and possibly the best route is to observe the baby rather than interrogate the other mother as to her HIV status (or any other disease). A conversation about your worry could be helpful - or not.
