I’m so sorry for your loss.
According to the Aveilus Sefer which I unfortunately had to buy recently, you may cut your nails after חצות on Erev Pesach. Shloshim is cut short by Pesach.
May you and your family, and the rest of כלל ישראל know no more צער.

I've been wondering the same. My nails are so long they're driving me nuts.

I hear you. Just finished Shloshim recently and the first thing I did in the morning was cut my nails.
Sorry for your loss as well.
