How to cut your baby's nails?

Recently, Rabbit's colleague said that her baby was less than one year old and had paronychia, which was a great shock. The result is 100 degrees, and there are many such cases. The main reason for this situation is that the baby has not been properly trimmed. Then let's talk about how to cut the baby's nails correctly.

How old does the baby need a manicure?

Many old people say that they can't cut their baby's nails, or their fingers will hurt in the future. In order to prevent babies from scratching themselves, they prefer to wear gloves for newborns. This is because I used to cut my baby's nails with scissors, which easily hurt my baby's little hands. Wearing gloves for your baby will limit the development of your baby's exploration ability and is not good for your baby. Therefore, from the birth of the baby, mothers should observe the baby's nails at any time, and cut them short in time if they are too long.

Why does the baby need to cut his nails often?

When it comes to why nails should be cut frequently, of course, you can make it clear, but when it comes to why babies should be cut frequently, do you really know:

Baby's hand coordination ability is weak, and it is easy to scratch yourself when nails grow out. Babies also have the habit of sucking their fingers and eating directly with their hands. Long nails are easy to hide dirt and accept dirt. After the dirty things in fingernails are sucked into the mouth, it is easy to cause digestive tract diseases and parasitic diseases, which will affect the baby's health. So it is necessary to cut his nails often.

How often do babies cut their nails?

Baby's toenails and fingernails grow at different speeds, so the interval time is different each time. However, when the naked eye obviously feels that the baby's nails are longer than the fingers, it means that the baby's nails should be cut.

Fingernails: Trim them 1 week 1-2 times.

Nail: generally 1 month pruning 1-2 times.

Baby, what does it take to cut your nails?

1) timing

Grandpa Mao said that we should despise the enemy strategically and attach importance to the enemy tactically. Although the baby is small, don't ignore his (her) little moves. One second he may be a quiet little angel, and the next he will turn on the punching and kicking mode. The rabbit once cut off a small piece of meat from the baby's hand because of good luck. It's too painful! So according to the age of the baby, we will break them one by one.

0~ 1 year-old: It is best to cut your nails while your baby is asleep, so that you can do whatever you want, and you are not afraid that your baby will get hurt when cutting your nails.

1~2 years old: In addition to cutting children's nails when they are asleep, they can also cut children's nails when they are quiet, such as when children are fascinated by drinking milk and playing with some toys.

2~3 years old: children of this age can already understand the intentions of adults. They can directly tell their children why they want to cut their nails, or show them to let them actively cooperate with nail cutting. But when Xiong Haizi loses his temper, don't cut his nails, which will only increase the child's resistance and easily hurt the child.

2) Bright light

Although it is safest to cut nails when the baby is sleeping, in dim light, the mother has a high chance of failure. When cutting your baby's nails, make sure the light is bright and there is no dead angle at 360 degrees.

What do you use to cut your baby's nails?

A: adult nail clippers

B: Tailor scissors.

C: eyebrow trimmer

Baby nail clippers

Hot moms who answered the first three questions please go to the automatic wall for one minute. The last one is your mother's standard answer.

Many treasure moms think it's just a manicure, so there's no need to spend that money. Any baby nail clipper is a business routine. Dozens of small nail clippers are enough to buy half a pack of diapers for the baby. Neither do my old people. Once, my mother was about to sharpen her baby's knife with a huge tailor's scissors and reading glasses in her hand, but I rushed over and stopped her, but hundreds of wild animals ran by in my heart.

Back to the topic, the baby's nails are small, elastic and difficult to cut. Ordinary nail clippers can easily hurt your baby. Broken nails fly into eyes, what should the baby do if he is touched by a sharp knife? Therefore, Ma Bao had better prepare special nail clippers for the baby.

What is the correct cutting?

Some patients with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder or neat mothers (ahem, why do they always feel that they are talking about themselves) always like to cut their nails very short, for fear that wicked people are hidden under their nails. The nails are cut too short, which makes the baby uncomfortable and sometimes even hurts. The length of the baby's nails can be the same as the fingertips, not too short.

After baby mothers cut their baby's nails, remember that the mother's standard action is to touch the baby's nails with her fingertips, and there is no sharp place. If you find sharp corners, be sure to trim them off to avoid scratching your baby.

The following is the question time

Can you dig out the dirt under your nails?

Tuyaoyao

I can't! If there are dirty things under the baby's nails, you can rinse them with water after cutting them, pick them with hard objects or cut them very short to let the dirty things flow out, which is likely to hurt the baby.

strange

Do you need to cut the sides of your nails into arcs?

Tuyaoyao

No way! The corners on both sides of the nail are cut too deeply, and long nails are easily embedded in soft tissues and become long nails. Incarceration can damage the skin around nails, cause suppurative infection of subcutaneous tissue, and cause paronychia or other inflammation.

strange

Can the flesh thorn on the baby's finger be pulled out?

Tuyaoyao

Absolutely not! Don't pull out the stinger directly by hand. If you pull it too much, it will hurt the surrounding skin tissue. At this time, mother should carefully cut off the root of the barb with nail clippers. In order to prevent frequent barbs, it is necessary to apply non-irritating and oily hand cream to your baby's hands in dry seasons or regions. Small hands are tender and fragrant. I really want a bite, haha.

strange

What should I do if I accidentally hurt my baby's finger?

Tuyaoyao

Tigers sometimes doze off. If you really accidentally hurt your baby's finger, you should first calm down, calm down, and then calm down. . . . . In short, don't just care about love and remorse. You should press the wound with antiviral gauze or cotton ball as soon as possible to stop bleeding, and then apply some disinfectant or anti-inflammatory ointment.
