Not saying there isn't a risk but have you ever seen or used a Moby wrap? The baby is wrapped so close to you, head facing your chest they aren't "exposed" to anyone else. I nurse in the wrap and changed her diaper in the car. She is exposed to more germs at the Dr office when I take her for well baby visits.
