Brief Summary  

This is a cross sectional study designed to develop and content validate a questionnaire and to explore the Knowledge, Attitude, Perception and Practices regarding exercises in immediate postpartum period by conducting a survey using the developed questionnaire. Although postpartum exercises are beneficial for women to overcome their dysfunctions, it has been observed that women are not adherent towards it even from the immediate postpartum period. To the best of our understanding, there is dearth of literature which has addressed Knowledge, Attitude, Perception and Practices about exercises in the immediate postpartum period and hence the study. The study duration is 1 year and will include 323 participants. Participants will be selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Written informed consent from the participants will be obtained for administration of the questionnaire and the questionnaire will be administered to the participants. The data obtained will be analyzed.
