Cut when feeding. Practice makes perfect. At the beginning I cut until he bleed 2 times, now I can use my face to support the bottle while cut his nails at the same time. If direct latch, lie down to latch and cut. After having baby I realized human body is quite flexible, feel like I’m doing yoga everyday..
I cut after she is done feeding and doesn't want to sleep. Just hold the fingers tight and be careful. Shes OK with it and doesn't fuss. Don't cut too deep and if u find it still long after cutting or sharp u can file a little. :)
