Tummy time w/ boppy?

Is it bad to give them tummy time with the boppy? Emily still doesn't like tummy time very much unless I use the boppy but I'm afraid it's not giving her enough of a chance to push herself up. She does push herself up while on it -- just doesn't like it without it because when she lays back down her face gets all smashed.

OK first of all LOVE the pictures.
I have no idea if it's good or not. We hardly ever get in real tummy time. That little pillow that comes with the tummy time mat is much closer to the ground than the boppy. Miranda still hates it and screams and I just get so bad about doing it. My child is never going to push up or roll over.

I know that part of it is that I just give in too easily. As soon as she starts to cry a little bit I go and pick her up because I just feel so bad. I know I should let her fuss a bit and maybe she'll get more used to it but I just feel bad doing it. I'm afraid she won't roll over either. I mean, when she's laying on her tummy on my chest she does GREAT but I know that's not really tummy time.
