Can you mark a dependent that only lived for 5 days as having live with you for the entire year?

My wife and I had a baby that had a genetic defect. She was born alive but only lived for 5 days. From what I understand is that we can mark her as having lived for the entire year. I don't know if that is correct and I don't want to mark it incorrectly. Any advice would be much help. Thanks.

I am sorry for your loss.

Yes, your child only lived for 5 days, your child would be considered as living with you all year.
