    I bite them off, their fingers dont stay still enough for clippers. The best time to do it is when they are either on the boob, or asleep in your arms. I "soak" her finger before I start biting, it makes the nail softer & easier to break off IYKWIM.
    Hope the Aloe vera hepls soothe Natalie's little face! Don't you dare feel bad OK!!

    awwww, these things happen. Aloe vera should do the job well!

    Also with nails, I do exactly what storm does. It is good to soften it too. some mums like to do it after a bath as well, as they stay soft for quite a while. I nibble gently at one corner then it should just 'peel away' with your fingers, just take your time.

    Maya 'almost' fliped over when I gave her some tummy time tonight, I got a photo of it too!
