keeping my DD's nails short was the one of the most difficult skills I had to learn as a first time mom. I remember shaking every time I had to go near her nails when she was itty bitty. My mom suggested I file her nails instead of cutting them if I was that worried. I tried that twice and I found it to be tedious and longer, as the days got longer I got better and better at cutting her nails. But I usually do them when she's fast asleep. She's way to hyper and fidgety when she's awake to let me cut her nails.

How do you keep your LO's nails short?
