Thank you so much for all of the great advice on what to do about Dallas's nails! He is 14 weeks old and has the tiniest nails ever. I start to sweat just thinking about those sharp clippers going near him! I just got this from Barbara:
I just heard you asking about how to cut Dallas nails, well it may sound kind of weird or gross but when my kids were babies I would just bite their nails off. I was always so scared that I would cut them, plus their nails were so soft they would just peel right off.
This is what Jenny does:
I have a 7 month old girl named Clara. I use a nail file. The double sided one. But I use the softer side and use it very carefully because it can also rub the skin away.
And here's Colleen's tip:
Cutting baby's nails are easier when they are asleep. perhaps after a bath and feeding this way the baby doesn't move and then you pinch their little fingers..
