Holy Freakin' Fingernails!

My beautiful, amazing, perfect daughter has decided that the skin on my chest is a nuisance and must be removed ASAP.

Now, where did I put that nail file?

Re: Holy Freakin' Fingernails!

  • I make DH clip DD's nails because I am terrified to cut them too close.  They grow like crazy and I feel like they constantly need to be trimmed.  I have been scratched quite a few times and she scratches her little face too :(

  • I'm still terrified to clip her nails because she never stops wiggling (even when she sleeps). I've just been filing them down.
  • I clip hers while she's eating because that's when she's most relaxed and least wiggly, I do them twice a week, baby nails grow so fast!

  • My guy's nails are so sharp but somehow they seem too short to clip more than once every two weeks - I try filing them when he sleeps but I think I just end up making them pointier so he really scratches his face....and me while he's feeding :-S

  • I have a three inch scratch on my forehead lol I never seem to be able to keep up with them
  • I find I get pinched more than anything!  I HATE clipping DS's nails.  Definitely my least favorite baby task.

    She has started pinching me too! She gets her hand on the hand holding my breast while she eats and pinches... Hard!

    I agree I hate doing this and I have to do it 2x a week, I would never let DH do it he's not a very careful person.

  • LO used to scratch herself when she was a couple weeks old but now she likes to keep her fingers in a fist but I still try to clip them as often as I can. Her new fave thing to do is pull my hair and rip it out or swat at me or DH with her fists which actually hurts lol
