Can I install a laminate wood floor a section at a time?

I am 66 yrs old and need to take out a carpet and put down a laminate wood floor. Can I remove a part at a time and move the bed and large furniture over on it as I go? I have to do it myself and am taking care of my 91 yr old mother and have a hip and knee that keep twisting out of place when I do heavy lifting or walk too much. Getting down on my knees is difficult but I can manage. I just need to know if this would work okay?

    Your room will be disheveled but other than that, it shouldn't be a problem. Bless you!

    Yes. You should be able to do it that way. Be sure to pick up a pair of knee pads to wear - even a cheap foam pair will help.

    also - have you bought your flooring already?
