It’s surprising your baby tested positive and everyone negative. But since he has turned negative now, he should be having enough antibodies to tide over any new infection though the chance of him getting infected again is very unlikely. Please don’t worry. Keep safe.

There is a chance that baby can also turn positive
As far as there is no symptoms, there is no need of any treatment
Be in quarantine for 14 days
Keep feeding the baby

After covid exposure, antibodies formation is there, which will fight for next few months,so chance of again covid positive report is less for few months atleast.
