namely good in the group experiment and control p- value equals 0.00. This
matter shows that giving Postpartum Yoga to group experiments is effective to enhance
fitness in mothers postpartum. Likewise giving care Mother postpartum in the

physical Mother postpartum. 19 Fitness physical be marked with
ability for do activity daily with enthusiasm. 20
The decline fitness of
a physical Mother postpartum will influence mother 's breast milk production
cause the baby will lack intake nutrition. Lack of nutrition in babies will
give rise to disturbance in growth and development, if not overcome in a way early
can continue until mature. Age 0 � 24 months is a period of rapid growth and
development or also called period gold at a critical time period. Period gold
can materialize if at this time babies and children obtain intake appropriate
nutrition for growing optimal flowering. 98
One
of the problems period long from disturbance growth and disruption development
consequence lack nutrition is stunting. Stunting is failure of the growth
process development in children under five years (babies under five years),
namely be marked with short life or very short Because malnutrition chronic
intrauterine from period beginning baby new just born visible at least 2 years

Test data effectiveness does not pair with using
statistical tests Mann whitney delta (Δ) on variables breast milk
production shows pre- post test scores different meaningful seen p- value 0.00
(p-value < 0.05) means giving Postpartum Yoga to group experiment more
effective increase fitness compared to with giving standard care Mother
postpartum just to group control. This matter proved with decline mean delta
(Δ) value in the group experiment more Lots namely 522.6 while in group
control namely 340.
Success giving Postpartum Yoga This can seen
from test results of the influence of delta (Δ) on fitness show pre- post
test scores different meaningful seen p- value 0.00 (p-value < 0.05) means
giving Postpartum Yoga to group experiment more effective raise fitness
compared to with giving standard care Mother postpartum just. This matter is
proven with enhancement mean delta (Δ) value in the group experiment more
Lots namely 12.23 while in group control namely 5.8. This matter in line with
research conducted by Romadlon et al (2019) that yoga movements will increase
fitness 100
CONCLUSIONS
On research This can
concluded that non- pharmacological therapy in the form of Postpartum Yoga effectively can increase breast milk
production and maternal fitness postpartum. This matter can be seen from difference enhancement breast milk production and
maternal fitness postpartum given to the group experiment compared to group control.����
