Weird question...

How often do you cut LO's toenails? I feel they don't grow as fast as his fingernails and they are much harder to get to. I honestly have only cut them like twice. (and really it's only the big toe that seems like it needs a trim).

  • I have only cut the big toe nails once and it was a couple days ago. She doesn't need it. Her fingernails on the other hand, grow like crazy!

    Same here, and my H yelled at me because apparently our son has "his big toe", which is constantly ingrown. He said "don't cut his big toe nails too short, they'll get infected!" I ignored him and the last time I cut his nails I noticed his big toe got all red and puffy :-/
  • Glad you asked, I was wondering the same thing!  I cut fingernails every other day (stressful) and have only trimmed toenails once!

  • I cut them probably every two - three weeks or so.

    I realized the other day that my toes dont grow as fast as my finger nails grow so it kind of makes sense.

    I cut her fingers every two - three days (they grow super quick).

  • I trim the big toes about once a month.  The rest of her toes have only been trimmed once, about 2 weeks ago.  Her finger nails grow fast and are trimmed at least once a week.
