DS is sooooo squirmy and I always end up filing his fingernails. His toenails however need to be clipped. I loathe the nail clipper we own (http://amzn.com/B004ZLZG2M), what worked for you?

I've used this one on all 3 kids and liked it. It's the larger one on the right.

I like to use manicure scissors, I feel like I have more control with them. And when they're this little, I always try and clip when they're sleeping- no wiggles that way!

We have had this type of nail clipper since DS1 was born almost 12 years ago. We recently killed our last pair so I bought a pack of 2 ... I think from Target or Toys R Us/BRU. They are great little nail clippers!

We love this style too, and have been using the same pair, for eight years. The shape makes it much easier to hold and control.
