My 3 month old keeps scratching her face. I keep her nails as short as I can. I trim them with nail clippers daily and file them down with a glass file so there aren’t sharp corners but she keeps managing to scratch herself still. I’ve tried putting scratch mittens on and using the sleep suits with the bits that fold over her hands but she hates them and will scream until I take them off. Does anyone know of anything that will help me get her nails shorter safely or something to cover her hands which might be more comfortable that she won’t hate?

I have the same with mine. I have purchased electric nail filer and that files nails very well. I have to do it very often, every 2nd day or so though
