Thanks ladies @geekymomma13 & @emmajeremy2627

my fiance got to cut our daughters when she was being cleaned, I had a c section too. I think the only time they can't is an emergency c section bit I'd ask to be sure it may vary where your at

but it could be different where you live:)

I know the doctor cuts it first and then the husband/partner cuts it to appropriate size when newborn is getting cleaned and checked out.

I've never heard of them letting them cut it right away.
