'Postpartum' refers to the period right after delivering a baby or babies, to that matter. It is during such period that a new mother feels so down or depressed, mainly due to the tiredness after more or less nine months of pregnancy including the labor and childbirth itself, and also due to the overwhelming feeling of a great responsibility of taking care of a baby. More so, a big factor to this sudden blues is the reality that she has gained weight, and this negative feeling may linger on for so long if nothing will be done about it.
Even during her pregnancy, a woman should have regular exercise, and Lamaze classes may help. This is to ensure that her whole body is very ready for the occurring changes which will be highlighted with the childbirth. If this is the case, then workouts after delivery will be easy. But, if she cannot have exercises during pregnancy because of medical or personal reasons, there must be concrete plans of 'catching' up after delivery.
