Was that a joke or was that the result of sleep deprivation?

Yes.

The auto filer works wonders fyi. Our daughter barely notices when we are doing it

What brand do you use? I’ve been thinking about trying it. Mostly because the manual file takes a while and is kind of fiddly.

It doesn't have a brand name... but here is photographic evidence of our baby tolerating it...

How worried are you about injury? We had An Incident where my MIL tried clipping our baby’s nails and I might be scarred for life.

Supposedly this type (which i will find the name for you, it came off our registry) is one that is both soft to touch and automatically stops if it hits the skin... she doesn't mind it

But that could be luck up to this point too.
