Some moms agree there's no way a baby should be anywhere near a nail salon for the fumes alone. Others say the fumes aren't a huge deal and that we breathe more terrible fumes just taking baby for a walk down a well-trafficked street but that it's rude to bring a baby to the nail salon.

When your little one is about a month old, their nails will have started to harden a little. This will make it easier to trim them using special baby nail scissors, which have rounded tips, baby nail clippers, or an emery board, though you'll still need to do this carefully.

If you accidentally draw blood (which is easy to do with fussy, fidgeting babies), don't worry. Using a sterile gauze pad, gently apply pressure to stop the bleeding. But don't put a bandage around the tiny cut — babies love to put their fingers in their mouths, which can loosen the bandage and make it a choking risk.
