Nail clipping/file

My son is now 3 weeks old, and his nails are getting a little long. I can feel him scratch a bit. Any tips on how to trim them a bit so he doesn't hurt himself?

Try and electric nail file for your baby as the normal ones can be really difficult to work with as they are so tiny ! x

You get use the baby nail scissors. I found they work best

Thank you both. I have a little file I was thinking of using for now cause they are still so tiny

The nail file actually ripped her nails. You know how a nail can break down the middle, something like that. So i bought the scissors

We’ve been using this and it’s amazing:

It has different attachments for different ages as the nails change in strength etc x

@Amy oh, I really like that one. Thank you! 😊

@Khloe I just actually did that. I gently filed them down and got lucky he stayed asleep, lol.

@Nat thank you for the heads up about that

I bought some little pointy scissors. Not baby ones because they have rounded ends. I do them whilst she's sleeping. 11 months, no accidents. X

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Help

Really embarrassing!
I'm a first time mummy at 35, she's 16 month and everytime I sneeze or cough I lose control of my bladder and pee a little 😔, I've had countless utis since having her aswell! Will it get better? Or do I need to invest in panty liners? 😆

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
