NAIL CUTTING STORY of Yaachu

Nail care of babies is not a lill thing. It requires much importance. Here’s Iam sharing yaachu’s nail care routine:

You have to cut your baby’s nail since they’re born. Even though they are small, it’s sharp and need to be careful. As the babies don’t have control over their movements when they are newbies it’s a MUST to cut nails as there’s a chance of getting hurt.
The best time to cut nails of babies is when they’re fast asleep. I always cut yaachu’s nails only when he’s fast asleep to avoid cuts and injuries. When you try to cut nails when babies are awake there’s a chance of baby moving their hands and you may loose control and they may get hurt.
While they’re fast asleep, hold their hand firmly and cut the nails carefully. You have to strictly use nail clippers of baby to cut nails. Never use the nail clipper that any adult member use as there’s a chance of infection. After every use clean the nail clippers and keep.
For hand, you can cut the nails along the curve and for legs straight cutting is advisable. After cutting, make sure there’s no rough edges as babies have the habit of rubbing eyes, which may hurt their eye. To avoid unpleasant situations please do make sure that you smooth out rough edges.
As nails of babies grow faster, you may need to cut the nails twice or thrice a week.
If you are not confident enough to cut the nails of babies alone, you can seek help of someone to hold baby’s hands, so that you can have proper control over nails. If you don’t have proper control you may cut the skin.
Always make sure that there’s ample lighting in the room while you cut nails of the young one.
There are parents who bite the nails of kids who are afraid of using nail clippers. But that’s not a healthy habit as you are inviting germs to little fingers.
While bathing always massage the tips of nails to clean any dirt in nails. As babies pick everything there’s chance for dirt in their nails. If you make it a habit of cleaning the nails during bathing nails will be clean.
If you accidentally cut your baby’s skin put his finger under running water and hold the finger with little pressure.
Always remember, babies put their hands in mouth almost every time. So keeping nails clean is veryimportant to keep your baby healthy.
Happy parenting.
