Baby nails

Hi mummies! When do u start trimming your LO nails? My LO's mittens kept dropping and recently I couldnt find the lost mitten back fast enough which resulted my LO face to have 3 fingernail scratches. Also any product recommendations or tips to trim the nails? They are so tiny and now we just rely on mittens. TIA!

I cut from the first week of life. Mittens kept dropping and she scratched herself on the 2nd day already. It’s actually not difficult to cut. Use baby sized nail clippers, gently hold the finger and pull the flesh away from the nail, then slide the clipper in and cut.
