My 9-day-old has very sharp nails, and she keeps scratching her little face 
her scratch mitts are "first size" but they keep falling off her hands. Any tips on keeping the scratch mitts on? I received some nail clippers off a relative in a hamper of baby things, but I daren’t use them on her because she fidgets a lot.
Thanks!
Use socks instead of mitten, it works better and they stay on their tiny hands longer.

i never used the mitts. I always clipped my boys’ nails while they were asleep because obviously you cant while they are awake. When they were newborns I was always afraid and nervous, but after a few tries I got the hang of it.

Some of the one piece suits have ‘built in’ mitts, I found with my daughter they worked great because she kept loosing the normal ones too. Basically they have a bit that folds over the hands. As for clipping her nails try it when she is asleep.

I think the sock idea is great
Try cutting her nails when she is asleep, baby’s nails grow really fast.
