In Indonesia, many postpartum mothers experience constipation. Some of the contributing factors include less of movement after childbirth (early mobilization), poor nutritional intake, low fluid intake, narcotic-containing pain relievers leaving the intestines and periodic spasms of the small intestine. The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of giving care in the form of early exercise or early physical exercise in an effort to prevent constipation during the puerperium.
