Get the Haakaa electric nail filer. It works for all ages even adults. You can find it on Amazon

They should be fine. You may want to file them more often vs cutting. Also I used to try to pull back or press down the skin at the tip of the finger to try to avoid accidents (it’s kind of hard to describe the method lol)

I like the safety first baby nail clippers with a light

If there’s open skin you can use over the counter triple antibiotic ointment on them but of course if it doesn’t look better or you’re concerned then make an appointment with his pediatrician

@Millie yes.

I always used a baby nail file until around 6 months when the nails start to Jared up, don’t feel bad lovely we’ve all been there xxx
