I have never had a problem with cutting Molly's fingernails. I use to wait until she was asleep to do it and now I normally clip them while she's nursing. Cutting her nails is not my issue. It's the next day! After I cut her nails they are so sharp and she always scratches her face up the next day. It makes me so sad to see. Have any of you tried filing your baby's nails after you cut them? I haven't tried it yet but it has been suggested. I just don't know if Molly will be patient enough for that. I guess we'll just have to see! I'll let you know how it goes!

We do file Isaac's after cutting, but it is a task because he's a wiggle worm. I also usually try to cut his nails after a bath because they are softer and don't tear, which makes them sharper the next day. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI don't really file Hadley's nails anymore because she does not usually scratch her face much anymore, but I used to file them every time and it really helped a lot.
