Is it ok to do tummy time if my daughter still has her umbilical cord?
I believe I was told to wait until the cord fell off but I used to lay my kids on my chest for a couple minutes to do some light tummy time. I think I told myself it was for tummy time. I just like baby cuddles.
For your 1 wk old baby ? Usually recommended by Drs to wait until they can hold their head up to do tummy time at 3-4 month’s of age

My youngest was lifting her head right after birth 🤣.
I wait until their cords fall off though.
Wait until the cord falls off, it could get snagged & end up bleeding.
