I just cannot get my baby’s nails buffed out enough! I use the Frida electric nail filer typically, but started using a regular emery board as well to see if it helped. He seems to scratch his face even right after I do them.
He’s sucking his thumb now, so I don’t want to cover his hands at night, but he’ll wake up with a big scratch if I don’t!! Would you let him scratch his face so he can self soothe?

I'm also dealing with this! I tried covering his hands but that did not go well

I don’t like the emery board I just clip her nails while she sleeps that helps cause if not she’s scratching herself, and everyone else

I also just clip my boy’s nails while he’s asleep.
